Graeme=0Ait was designed for both mono and tri gear. Advantage was that all
of the holes =0Acould be sealed which is almost impossible with the stainl
ess one. It also =0Aoffers a less draggy space for fast moving colling air
to get out of the =0Acowling. Cooling drag is a very significant part of to
tal drag with an efficient =0Aairframe like the Europa. Holes are particula
rly bad, lot of drag plus they =0Aallow flames to get through.=0AUnfortunat
ely I can't make them now. =0AGraham=0A=0A=0A=0A=0A________________________
