Jaguar cowling on N932TE |

|---|---|
The original 'deal' was for the cowling to be painted. I think Ned wanted to do some R&D on the cowling so he took it unpainted. |

Ned isn't smiling. Right from the start, this project had problems. First, the AG5B needed to be converted to an AA5B carb airbox. Then, the DER didn't want to approve the cowling because of the 3-bladed prop. Is Ned smiling? It's hard to tell. I finally got the cowling approved through the Sacramento FSDO (oh, my god, did the FAA really come through in a pinch?). My PI and I discussed the installation with 2 different propeller experts. "No worries, Mate." The AA5B airbox and the AG5B hardware are made for each other. |
