The cowl is mounted onto the fuselage with 4 wood screws. These screws go into the small
plywood squares on the front inside of the fuselage. The following procedure is helpful to be sure
the wood screws hit the plywood squares. Install the canopy hatch (if the canopy hatch is not
installed when you fit the cowl, it may be impossible to fit the canopy hatch after the cowl is
installed!).
Tape small pieces of paper over the plywood cowl-mounting tabs as shown. Install the cowl and align.
Use the small pieces of paper as guides to make holes in the cowl and install the wood screws.
Remove the cowl and screws and soak the plywood mounting tabs in thin CA glue. This will
strengthen the mounting tabs. Re-install the screws.
