A quick way to test would require clean surface, duct tape, and thin plastic (mylar). Attach and go flying for a quick test of the numbers. Use the good duct tape... I think the wheel pants, wing fairings and changing the rear turtle deck would have the most impact on speed after getting the wing/stabilizer incidence and prop set right. -------- Ron Lendon, Detroit, MI WW Corvair with Roy's Garage 5th bearing Zodiac XL, ScrapBuilder ;-) http://www.mykitlog.com/rlendon Corvair Engine Prints: http://www.zenith.aero/profile/RonLendon Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=319095#319095 ________________________________ Message 3 _____________________________________ Time: 03:45:59 AM PST US Subject: Zenith601-List: Re: Zenith 601xlB has first flight today From: "Ron Lendon" Congratulations Alan, 5 years and just maybe this spring for me. -------- Ron Lendon, Detroit, MI WW Corvair with Roy's Garage 5th bearing Zodiac XL, ScrapBuilder ;-) http://www.mykitlog.com/rlendon Corvair Engine Prints: http://www.zenith.aero/profile/RonLendon Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=319096#319096 ________________________________ Message 4 _____________________________________ Time: 04:12:07 AM PST US From: "Mack Kreizenbeck" Subject: Re: Zenith601-List: Zenith 601xlB has first flight today Congrats from Idaho!
