Posted: Sat Jul 15, 2006 3:06 pm Post subject: Cowlings

I flew from Fredericksburg Texas to Collegeville PA (N10)  - Gary Vought 

with his newly designed cowling, with me flying my stock Tiger - as a two 

ship formation.



Observations:



1)His Tiger leaves mine in the dust (really really leaves it behind - even 

at high altitude where I can usually do OK)



2) His new cowling looks awesome - and it received comments in the places we 

landed.



3) He never had to reduce power for cooling.

(Oh - yeah - also - he is alive and well)

p.s. I am no aeronautical engineer - and there are too many degrees of 

freedom for me to say that the Vought Cowl was responsible for everything - 

but I want one in a big big way.



ppss We made the flight in one day - Gary was nice enough to throttle way 

back to allow me to keep up.
