It's nice to see he's using the WIX method for construction/reconstruction of old aereoplane bits:

“Jack has built a mold for the front clear nosebowl. He has also built a vacuum system and an oven to try to form the 0.080-inch-thick nosebowl. No success yet but with a little more beer he thinks he can do it.” :wink:

Any teenier and the pilot would need hardpoints to hang from.
