G102 Wing Inspection Panel by Tim[_1_]
Can anybody tell me the diameter of the plexiglass inspection window on the underside of the wing of a G-102? I forgot to measure it this past weekend and I'd like to get one made during the week if possible - hate to have to go back up next weekend just to take the measurement! Thanks.
