Step 1
Use a hobby knife to remove the plywood from the
sub-firewall to provide cooling air to pass through the
fuselage. The plywood has been partially cut so all that is
required is to score the plywood along the lines.

Use a hobby knife to remove the plywood from the
top of the engine box to provide cooling air to pass
through the fuselage. The plywood has been partially
cut so all that is required is to score the plywood along
the lines.
