Re: Greetings from Central Arkansas

Re: Cowling issues
My pins are stock, no issues. Before I started flying, I used to wipe down my pins with silicone lubricant. For some reason I don't need to do that anymore.

Thanks
It probably looks a lot like the one in the "Waiex 191 fuel catch and drain" video I posted on page 1. I copied what others had done.

Re: The inevitable fuel spill disaster
The Onex looks similar to the Sonex-B design. I had shown an Australian builder what we did on the A model for a catch can, and he came up with a similar concept for the B model.
