3D "Extreme" makeover Terryscustom edition

[Terryscustom]

Cowls for the Extra and the Edge are split and ready for the "twins"

Box of goodness showed up yesterday from DA that included the well broken in 70 that was on my Extra before I face planted it. Looking forward to trying out the EME70 on the Edge as well.

Got the foam wings for the Edge reinforced with spruce spars from root to tip and carbon on top of that and along the TE. I'll get these sheeted tomorrow!

Looking great Terry! Maybe you have already explained, but how did you split the painted cowls so nicely? After that is done, I assume it is made to be bolted together just as you have taught me on the Viper-ST?

I must be honest here! I think your a real life Super Hero, Thanks again for taking the "need an engineer" out of things to making it so easy it's "DUH"

No superhero....just a regular airplane geek that likes to experiment.
