Hi all,
I am in the process of trying to obtain (or build) a fiberglass teardrop shaped (in plan view) 'blister' fairing to accomodate a carb. which protrudes slightly above (about 40mm) the deck of the top cowling.
The aircraft is a SF25C 'Falke' motorglider.
I've been unsuccessful in my efforts to track down a supplier of such a part online, could anyone offer any assistance?
Failing being able to buy the fairing or complete top cowling, I'm considering building one myself so if anyone would like to offer some advice on fiberglass techniques I would be very grateful! :)
(I have in mind buliding a plug, forming a mold over that then doing a lay-up inside the mold).
regards
John.
