does any one have a template drawing of these for a j-9/10?

would prefer a head start before hacking up a couple sheets of aluminum.

thanks.

What we have done that is pretty easy is to laminate about 4 layers of Kevlar to the inside of the body in that area.

We have done aluminum panels but finished product was not as nice as the Kevlar.

I am fairly sure I know how/what you did, but do you have any pics?

Will look for pics. Very simple. I will get specs and details.

Jay,

Any luck digging up any of the old photos, or anything else that could point me in the right direction?

Thanks,

Cannot find any old photos. However call Dave Craddock at 313-720-9381. He did all of our old bodies and can help. Tell him I told you to call him.

Well we haven't built a body for a while, but I didn't think the Novakar required side protection because of the side pod crush space, so is this just up at the cockpit level ?
or else where ? I'd like to know as we are going to redo the main body moulds( the old mould has had it ) for future reference.
Thanks
Dave

They are not required Dave, we put them on our new stuff just because I want them.
