Brief Description:  Cowl & FAB

Various tasks - Cowl, FAB and elevator control tube.

Applied a coat of resin to the snorkel to fill the file marks and prepare for shaping the inlet. This is part of the inlet tunnel extension, too.

Added a couple of layers of fiberglass tape (saturated) to the sliced up FAB snot. The slices allowed the alignment of the 'bowl' on the FAB, to slightly shape the alignment with the snorkel. This will take a couple of steps, with lots of filing/sanding.

Checking over the aft bay in preparation to close-up the fuselage, I found there was slight interference between the elevator control tube and the bulkhead at the end of the tube. Added a washer to the left spacer, and removed an equal length from the right spacer on the bellcrank.
