Since Powerflow has been brought up again I thought I would comment.

I am quite curious how PowerFlow got thru the STC process seeemingly so easily....

Compared to what trouble the FAA is giving Gary with a far better cowl than available anywhere for our grummans.

I guess once you have worked with the FAA for several years and acheived several STC's they cut you some slack

I am suspicious that the short stack approval process did not check out a lot of things....like the effects to air flow and cooling by interrupting the exit ramp flow or the additional heat gain inside the cowl which I think has shortened a few owners battery life.

Things I wish were addressed now that I bought into the short stack.

Just venting and hoping Gary's cowl gets approved soon...hang in there Gary and don't let those FAA weenies stop you.

Regards,
Ned
