Keith,
As for the cowl plugs, Aircraft Spruce sells a do-it-yourself kit that you cut to your openings.  I used one of their kits and it works fine.  Hint: make it a little snugger than you think you should.  My plugs seem to be much looser when the engine compartment is hot than when it is cold.  Not sure why.

Quoting Keith Smith <keith.smith@gmail.com>:

Since my 360 is based outside, I'm curious what cowl plugs people use to
cover up all 3 intakes?  The ones I've found on the market so far only have
2 plugs, not 3.

Also, are the pitot tubes on 360's all the same size? I wasn't involved in
the build of this plane, so I'm not sure what was used, and is used on
everyone else's 320/360's. I'm hunting down a pitot tube cover, and Aircraft
Spruce has two sizes.

Thanks a lot!

Keith
