Something more like this? [JJJ
RV10-COWL Rev 5] I'm not sure I
like this look totally either but it might improve the airflow a bit. I guess
the other option would be to put a center 'divider' something like this
[JJJ-RV10-COWL Rev4 & JJJ-RV10-COWL Rev
4-FULL VIEW] to get things better streamlined, but it actually
may increase the problem due to rotational flow off the prop.
