Hey Listers,

Has anyone tried one of these pre-made RV-6/7/9 fiberglass windshield fairing yet? Seems like it could be a HUGE time and frustration saver if it fits pretty well. I'm thinking about repainting the RV-6 at some point, and the glass could use replacing as well as the bezel. This could be an option...

Hi Matt,

Yes, I used the Aircraft Spruce Windshield Fairing on my RV7A. I was very happy with the final result. The only thing I had to do to get it to fit well was cut it at the top center and remove a small piece. Yes, I would use it again and I would recommend it.

We just returned from a 4000nm trip in the 7A and everything worked well. Attached is a picture of the fairing in place.

Regards
David Lamb
