In reviewing Ed’s Good Plane Living installation post of the AeroSplat cowl flaps I wanted to go a step further with a design that had fewer pieces and easier assembly. I came up with three custom parts (Van’s P/N F-10108C will be used and F-10108A will be modified to add angle brackets but that won’t require custom parts). Here are pictures of my design.
Design files are available and I did make a few extra parts but I am hesitant to offer them until I have my cowl flaps installed and operational.
Thank you for the innovative effort. I would be very interested in the design files.

Looks awesome. Was it a tight fit? Ed was the pioneer. Where do the angle brackets come into play? Sent you a PM on Vans
Thanks! I haven’t gotten them installed yet, I got them ordered early so that I wouldn’t have to wait when I got around to the cowling work. The holes are there for the angle brackets (down middle) and will replace the Van’s bent part.
