Brief Description:  Lower cowling cutouts

Started the day by removing the upper cowling after warm temps last night helped get her cured nicely. Still, she will remain in position for the 3 day cycle. But she had to come off to get her peel ply removed and cleaned up in prep for the mating of the lower cowling.
The lower cowling is seeing some major changes as well. It has always had buldges to conceal the exhaust pipes, but those are bye bye. In fact, I cut out almost the entire left and right side as the new mod will also include a pressure recovery airfoil and very modest curves to deal with the aft 2 pipes and oil filter. She will be gorgeous and I can't wait. I had to run to Hobby-Lobby and get some foam board for the job and that ate up work time, but tomorrow I plan to get her all frame up if not in 2 Plies BID :) Wishful thinking
