Seems a lot of people have leaky front seals, and a lot of people have
tried a couple time to fix it and given up. Looking at the planes at the
EOC convention, about 50 percent or more of the planes seemed to
be in front seal leak mode, some of them pretty substantial.

I was worried about mine until I saw that mine was, no pun intended,
a drop in the bucket compared to a bunch of planes. I get a little drool
that can be cleaned up with a Kleenex. A lot of Coupes seem to have
an oil-smeared cowl at every DZUS fastener after every flight.
