Brief Description:  fit and trim cowling

Lots of on and off. Got aft end of extended cowling trimmed up pretty well in 2 passes. Need some final fit and trim. Have two bulges at aft end of both sides of original shorter cowl. Not sure if it was there all along, or if I introduced it with the brace I needed to put on to hold the damn thing together and spaced properly. Will try some heat on it, may need to cut out and BID up. Also need to work out a joggle for the bottom cowl extension. Didn't think of that when I did the layup to extend the cowling. Not sure what I would of done differently at the time though.

IF YOU ARE DOING A UL ENGINE, HAVE ARION LEAVE COWLING LONG AND NOT TRIM IT TO "SAVE" YOU WORK.

Camera battery crapped out, so have limited pics. Cowl is fully fitted to fuselage and the big holes are cut out for the blisters
