California Smelly...yak 2

That's only 3.62 stone!

Four pounds lighter than my Bidule 170 and with more wing area....

Hope you and the SMELLY-YAK-2 can make it down to Fallbrook to our First Saturday of the Month Aerotow some time. It looks like it could tow a full size.

Working on the door hinges..... and balance ( looks like about 0.45 kg on the firewall is necessary )

Custom nose means custom front windscreen pieces. Started out by making paper templates to the openings, then transferred them to vinyl paint mask applied to the new PTGE material.
Then as is said many times......Simply....... "Sand to Shape".......easy-piezy.
