You know, I'm really interested in this idea for my big stunt ships. If it
works well (and I can't see why it should not), it would be great. You
could relocate the NV to a safe (and convenient) location and not have to
hack holes in the side of the cowl for it. 

I'm going to order one soon and try it. I'll let you know how it works.
Who knows, it might become a hot trick for CLPA ships.

P.S. Iskandar, I received the control lines OK and sent you a letter with
payment for the same out last week. You should get it soon.

Thanks again.

Oh sure, we could do it the _easy_ way. But it just wouldn't be the COWBOY WAY.
