Subject: LNC2 cowl stiffening

Greetings,

 

I would like to hear from any and all 320/360 drivers who have some time on their airframes.  Are there particular areas of the cowling that should be stiffened?  Is the gel-coat cracking anywhere?  Do you see flutter/vibration on the top of the cowl during flight?  Any deformation after a number of hours?

 

I have already added some 1/4" foam for stiffening around the nose gear cutout of the lower scoop – it was pretty flimsy.  I am also planning to stiffen the relatively large flat area of the top of the cowl.

 

Any other suggestions?

 

Thanks!

 

Dan
