Gentlemen:

The accident recounted by the NTSB page had me thinking.   The report seems
to suggest that a papertowel was left in the engine compartment and that
clogged the turbo.  

I had often wondered if it were possible to design a cowling which would be
easily opened for pre-flight inspections.

I always wondered why this wasn't in the original design (probably to reduce
drag) but I would think that somewhere on the LML is someone who has an
answer?

Regards,

Dave
