I am looking for the degrees of deflection for setting my full flaps. If you don=99t have a handy tool already, you can download a BubbleLe vel app for your cell phone that is very accurate. Any help would be very much appreciated. -Doug Crane ________________________________ Message 2 _____________________________________ Time: 11:19:53 AM PST US From: Glenn Subject: Re: KIS-List: Flaps Deflection I will try. We need to do that anyway; it seems our full down position must be close to 40 degrees. We are thinking about adding a mid position as full down seems to be too much; it gets squirrelly close to ground effect. Glenn Meyers N343BS.

Ours are manual. I think we need to add the center notch. First notch is a little light and full seems a bit much.
