Interesting development.  Does the enlarged tailplane have any effect on the stick
free longitudinal stability at cruise speeds?

Ah, forget that, I just found the description a few threads down.  I'll post some
more in that.

Hi Nick, 
A couple of queries on this.  Some Lightnings tend to run out of nose up trim on
approach with flap.  Working from the descriptions in your article suggests
that the trim forces will be reduced and less trim tab power  required.  Is that
the case in practice?

If I read you correctly, you talk about "significantly less elevator throw for
the same stick movement" which implies that you are changing the gearing in the
elevator circuit.  What changes are made here?

Finally, do you consider this mod would have similar effects on the short wing
aeroplane?  I do a lot of long cross countries in mine and, while lovely to fly,
a little more trim stability would be nice on those 500 mile legs without an
autopilot.
