?Ok Jeff I'll close up my elevator horns with no weights added. I'm thinking? as long as my elevator cables are tensioned properly,I should not worry about flutter.Before tail mods?top speed?was around 145 indicated. I believe everything you write here, except for your gages........do you think your instruments need calibration?.....just kidding.......?

Your pitot reacts to the dynamic pressure of impacting air molecules, independent of density altitude,? just like your flight surfaces will, so flight testing to 215 IAS has been demonstrated without flutter. Congrats. Peter I routinely descend from 12,500' to 7000' for landing with the ASI showing 190 mph IAS, which is roughly 220 mph TAS at those altitudes. _______________________________________________ Search the KRnet Archives at http://tugantek.com/archmailv2-kr/search.
