Brief Description:  Engine Baffle Install - Trial Fitting Panels

Started to sort out the several dozens pieces that make up the engine baffle kit, received as part of the FWF kit from Vans. Started by identifying the individual pieces, and placing on the engine to get the overall picture in my mind about how this goes together.

Identified the right side baffle components, and hung on the engine. I am pleasantly surprised about just how well the individual pieces align to the correspinding attach holes in the engine case.
Identified the left side baffle components, and hung on the engine.
Identified th aft baffle components, for which there are many. The right aft side is primarily a single piece, and easily mocked up for trail fitting. The left aft is actually several components, including the oil cooler support bracket and doubler plate.
