Hey Bob. Did the slit the back of the fairing and wrap it over the strut
or take one end of the strut off and slide the fairing on ? How did you
address the jury strut intersection?
do not archive

I second that... Thanks for sharing the link... I have always wanted to
streamline my struts but didn't think it had a big effect.... A fellow 8
01 builder told me he covered his and picked up a little speed but.....
The Zenith thin metal strut covers were so fragile he could not push the
plane around by pushing on the struts without bending them. I did find
some poly/PVC covers that looked like it was more durable but after seve
ral emails to them and no response I concluded that company must have go
ne belly up.... Anyone have another source? For everyday use i would pr
obably leave them off. But on a 13 hour trek to OSH I bet they would pay
for themselves real quick.......

Of course strut covers were already on my punch list. ;-)

Ben,
Removed one strut at a time and slid over it. I used the smaller fairing
and it was a snug fit. Drilled thru it at the intersecting brace and bolte
d
through it. That is all that I have to hold it in place. Has been fine for
3
yrs now.
