Hi Randy

What is the thinking behind the extensions on the trailing edges at the tips?

It is more efficient,  and keeps more air from spilling off quicker, adds more lift

Real nice, Dale Barry had one years ago, before his workshop fire, I believe.

Bill,

New ship looks beautiful, as expected.  It doesn't show good in the photos, but I can see the
broad stripe detail that you used on the bottom of the cowl.  That was a terrific detail on the
new plane that you built several years ago.

Be sure and keep it in good shape, so I can see it in person when we return to Florida in the
fall.  Hope you are having better flying weather than we are here in Central NY.   It's been
windy and wet for the whole month of May.

Is the new ship all trimmed out okay?

Good luck at the Nats....we'll be watching for you.

Cheers.

Hi Milton   The  SHRIKE  STARIS  SATONA  ARE  MID-sized stunter, that still look  60 size  when flying, the are  640 sq in  and  are  the  same  basic  aero package  as  the  VECTOR , they have been flown  very successfully with  40s  to 65s,  one person has a 75 in his,  2  with 40s  have made it as high  as 2nd in the  top 5 at the  NATs,  so they work very well, they are  designed  for  piped  40s,  but other  sizes  work well,  and  many are  being  flown by side  ex  engines, like the  PA40 , 51, 61 , as  well as  LA 46  and  ST G51, there are a few  with Stalkers  and  45FSRs
