Hi! Ferg.
Mine finished up to be a lash up too so I flashed it all round with
firestop mastic. I'd expect you to have to bend it to locate it then
straighten it insitu!

Cheers,
I diligently fabricated the subject sheets according to the
diagrams
in the book, bending the edges as per the pictures and accurately siting
the
attachment holes. ........and most of it went together pretty well (not
too
many scratches and rims neatly filed for safety) - but not on the
engine
frame!
I'm having the darnest time trying to fit the starboard side
panel,
feeding it through the spaces past the rudder flanges and attempting to
fiddle it past the bottom frame ends. All the others will doubtless fall
in
place.
Are there magic incantations to be said, or strange powder to be
strewed in strategic places? If not, I'm in a bad spell here at
Belli Acres.
Happy landings (mine are getting further away all the time),
Ferg
