Went back into the digital world between helping clean up flood damage and waiting
for flying conditions to improve.
Decided to see what wing root flares do in cruise config; short answer, not a great
deal... they look pretty and clean up the air flow. The gains in drag reduction
are minor compared against standard factory config. If anything they probably
reduce noise; smidgen of drag reduction and lift increase.
Remodelled the canopy slightly to match actuals closer; thought the sleeker rake
would improve performance; surprised to see the data go the other way... and
that may change again once an active spinning prop gets introduced into the solution.
Lismore town and airfield still destroyed...

I have not flown for ages, due Wx and other issues.
Yesterday in what might be call good English Spring weather I spent much of an
hour trying out how not to spin whilst practising higher bank gliding turns.
So if I have EFOT I need at least 600ft.
Will try again sometime.
Mike
