    Subject: Strut to wing intersection W10 fairings...
    From: Thomas Barnes <barnest@us.ibm.com>
    10/13/2004 06:00:41 Hi TW listers, Just wondering if anyone out there makes, or would be interested in making, fairings for the wing strut to wing intersection... and, for those that have them, has anyone done any tests to determine what performance gain there was by fairing this part of the structure ? I'm guessing 2 mph or so... Thanks, Thomas

    Tom, I removed and made a flat pattern of the fairing at one of the last fly-ins and it is a really easy part to make. If you want i could place it on file in the yahoo group or send it direct to you. Only GOD knows if they help the speed !

    --> Tailwind-List message posted by: Mcculleyja@aol.com Hi Malcolm, The GPS ground speed got up to a high of 197 MPH for about 50 to 75 miles near the end of the return trip after I was finally able to climb to 6,500 feet from the 3,500 msl I had to stay at until that point due to the solid overcast about 1,000 above me. I had hoped to climb to 10,000 or higher for the trip but the cloud cover was solid overcast most of the way and was so turbulent that I couldn't run any faster down low. Thanks again for hosting such a great bunch of TW enthusiasts at your wonderful Lovelace International! BTW, the honey is about the best I've ever tasted. Since you build such pretty TW's, are you also a bee keeper?

    --> Tailwind-List message posted by: "Stephen Doughty" <usaviator1@hotmail.com> Jim, glad you like the honey, it comes from our own bees. In retrospect of your return flight, our return flight back north to Michigan was severe clear. We climbed up to 4500 with a gps speed of about 122 mph. On the flight down we were at 3500 with a speed as high as 159 mph at times.

    --> Tailwind-List message posted by: Mcculleyja@aol.com Steve, Glad to learn where the honey originated. You certainly travel in class with two brands of honey on board, one named Lori but the other with no name! Now all you need is to do this in your future Tailwind---then you'll never wipe off the big grin! BTW, thanks for sharing one of your honeys!!

    --> Tailwind-List message posted by: "Stephen Doughty" <usaviator1@hotmail.com> Jim, you are welcome. We have been bee keepers for 3 years now, my father kept bees for 72 years before he passed away. That is when we took it up. The one named Lori is really a good sport about going to airplane stuff with me. She wants to get her pilots license in the future. btw, Lovelace International is the shortest strip I have ever been in and out of, I am glad he doesn't have any trees near either end!
