pine asks why not add aviation grade alluminun spacers instead of getting

the longer mount?  1. the longer mount puts the C G way forward which

causes the plane to fly way- way better. 2. The additional space created by

the longer mount is a godsend to working space in the accesory area. 3. you

don't have to dish the fire wall for the oil filter or spend extra $$$$ on

an airwolf remote. 4. It looks a hell of a lot sexier with a longer nose.

Is 4 enough or should I continue?  Fred N9BF Don't fly like my brother!!!
