The fit on the propeller ring has always been pretty poor. Now that the upper cowl flange is straight and is a perfect fit for the shape of the lower flange, I can fix the position of the lower flange step to line up with the upper flange. I assembled the two halves with a piece of saran wrap sandwiched between and then stretched it back over the upper flange.
I then mixed up some epoxy/micro and filled in the gap. After it cured, I rough shaped it with a vixen file. I still need to build up the face of the propeller flange a bit near the joint, so there’s no sense in making this perfect now, but you can already seen how much nicer this looks. While this was curing, I cut and laid out the holes on the gear leg fairing hinges.
