I have been covered in it now for days and I seem almost to be getting used to it. I had big reservations about the cowling and how much of a mongrel it was going to be in my head but so far really it has been a piece of cake. I have, as usual, followed the Sonex instructions and it has come out well so far. I have really been shitty that the southco studs are not in the hardware kit. I have made it up to the bit where I need the studs however proving to get them in Australia has been very difficult. I still don't have any yet but fingers crossed my local shop can supply some after market copies. I toyed with the idea of doing the mod to split the cowling but again making the decisions to stick to the plans. At the end of this build I just want a standard Sonex. Easy to maintain and same as all the others.
These little buggers have spoiled my day for the last 3 days trying to get hold of them. Of course I can get some from the US no worries,,,but also pay the $65 freight to get them here.
