Yeah, while we've heard nothing but good about the
cowls on the 2-seat RV's, the RV-10 James cowl users
have had some pretty mixed and often negative experiences
and it's cost them lots of extra build time. That said,
for those who've put in the time, some have come out
at least OK....but it hasn't shown to be a big performance
improver like on the 2 seat RV's either, from what I
can tell. It's definitely specific to the RV-10 model.

I'll take Robin's explanation as an education since my actual experience is with a 6A - my bad as I thought they did the same GT / NASA testing on the -10 cowl.
I would really like to see the 'new' RV10 cowl as I am contemplating a four-place.....
Thanks,
Ralph
