Aluminium Cowls
Hi,
Can anyone tell me what alloy is used for the manufacture of aluminium nose bowls on aircraft such as the Luscombe or C-140 or J-3 Cub ? Also how are they made (hand beaten, drop hammer etc ??) I assume they are formed in the 'O' condition ? If so are the heat treated subsequent to forming or is the strain hardening as a result of the forming process enough to harden and strengthen the metal ? Thanks, Steve
