    Lowell, Great job on those fairings , I suspect more pictures of your plane would reveal some more of your nice workmanship, lets keep them coming! Bruce N199CL

    I have been thinking about this area too. It's too bad there isn't a carbon fiber airfoil extrusion that could go over the wing lift struts and horizontal stab support.

    Even better yet would be someone who could design some CAD cuffs for these fairings. If someone has the ability to draw these they could be made with a 3D printer out of nylon, ABS or even carbon fiber material. Is there anybody in the KF group that is good with CAD (I don't have that skill)?
