From: "WurlyBird" Absolutely beautiful work Lloyd. Blending the two fairings together like that is what I had in mind. I can guarantee however that I will not end up with as nice of a finish but hopefully I can get the shapes similar. I am assuming that the PVC is pretty easy to get a shape on with some medium sand paper. As far as the pitot, if I use the existing mounting hole in the wing the face will end up about 4 inches below and 4 inches behind the leading edge where the stock one is 4 inches below and even with the LE. I will see if I can move it forward a little without causing too much trouble. I believe that there should not be much error if it is a little behind the LE. It may read a little high while at high AOAs but I am not normally looking at the ASI at times like that anyway. -------- James Kitfox 3 / 582 / 70" IVO 2 blade GA 50 hrs on the Fox in between deployments, now she lies in wait Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=333910#333910 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Other Matronics Email List Services ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Post A New Message kitfox-list@matronics.com UN/SUBSCRIBE http://www.matronics.com/subscription List FAQ http://www.matronics.com/FAQ/Kitfox-List.htm Web Forum Interface To Lists http://forums.matronics.com Matronics List Wiki http://wiki.matronics.com Full Archive Search Engine http://www.matronics.com/search 7-Day List Browse http://www.matronics.com/browse/kitfox-list Browse Digests http://www.matronics.com/digest/kitfox-list Browse Other Lists http://www.matronics.com/browse Live Online Chat! http://www.matronics.com/chat Archive Downloading http://www.matronics.com/archives Photo Share http://www.matronics.com/photoshare Other Email Lists http://www.matronics.com/emaillists Contributions http://www.matronics.com/contribution ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- These Email List Services are sponsored solely by Matronics and through the generous Contributions of its members.
