I remember reading and seeing plans for a nose cone...any idea where?

In one of the Locost news letter magazines, can't remeber which though!!

Found it finally!

George is a top guy, very knowledgeable, friendly, and helpful. He often posts to the Yahoo lists.

The Q&D nosecone plans look the trick for fitting an odd-sized chassis, plus the shape is more similar to the original L*tus.

I think I'm going to try them when the time comes.
