Like on a Cub? I might have some. George

Re: Needed: Continental Cooling Eyebrows

Hi George, Yup, like the Cub. Seems like the Taylorcraft version is a little different though, unless it changed from time to time like the cowlings did. The Taylorcraft eyebrow I'm using for a model has two sparkplug wire holes versus the one hole for two wires on the Cub (I think) Will have to look at some Cub pics. I'll see if I can put up a pic of it today. I've got a Cub style set on the Parrakeet project..........hmmmmm

Howard,

Here is a link to the L-2 drawing for the Continental Cooling Eyebrow, don't know for sure if it is the same on your bird.

And there is more, but I am supposed to be working.

When you look at the disks on Taylorcraft.org hit the control key and the "F" key at the same time and the search function will come up. Put in the word baffle and hit find next, do this on each disc and you will find all the baffle drawings.

Re: Needed: Continental Cooling Eyebrows

Thanks Ron, That looks very similar to the one Forrest loaned me for a model.
Oops! You're too fast for me. Thanks for the tip. I'll try the search.

Re: Needed: Continental Cooling Eyebrows

Ron, I took the drawings and had them blown up to full size and made patterns and made the eyebrows. Worked great. I had to make a form set for the wedge pieces. Dick

Re: Needed: Continental Cooling Eyebrows

If I end up making them, I'll make a pattern from the one sitting here. Now reversing it for the opposite side will give me a headache!

Re: Needed: Continental Cooling Eyebrows

Make them Howard, it is easy with one sitting there...... sorry to have not made connection last time through , contact Frank first then me about three days before. I probably got your message about the time you pilled in home...

[Howard Wilson]

Re: Needed: Continental Cooling Eyebrows

Forrest, I might just have to make them. No worries on the missed connection,
the short notice was my poor planning. I think with the price of gas now Frank is gonna UPS it or Greyhound.......
I'd never been out to Blakesburg before. Lots of cool old airplanes and nice people. They have a Mono Prep that looks a lot like a Chummy out in the hanger.
Their big shindig is around Labor day, I'll try to get the T-craft out there for that.
