Not long now, going through the final "Flight Permit" application requirements then start the flight testing phase.

Congratulations looking nice !
Couple of questions if you don’t mind .
Did you have to modify the Standard cowling ?
Do you have a build log on your fwf ?
Thanks

Just a couple of bulges to clear the exhausts on the front cylinders and a bigger inlet on the L/H side for the radiator.
I don,t have any build logs but I will be happy to post pics and answer any questions.
Cheers

Gary,

Looks great, and I'm sure you'll have a flight report soon! There are a lot of people very interested in the Rotax 912 installation of a Sonex, and seeing how you mounted yours would be a great help. Please consider posting a walk-around video explain your installation, or perhaps some additional pictures that really show things off.

I'm looking forward to your first flight!
