Drilling the holes for the cowls and the fuselage:
 The first step is to measure and mark where the holes will be drilled on the tape around
the cowls. Let's start with the upper cowl.
 Find the center line between the upper and lower cowl. Measure 20 mm upwards along
the gap and 13.4mm towards the spinner. This is where the first hole is located. Do the
same on the other side of the upper cowl.
 Now find the centerline you marked before at the top of the upper cowl, which
corresponds with the windscreen's brace. Measure 13.4 mm along the centerline towards
the spinner and mark it for the third hole.
