Robert, Several of us have discovered that the left wing is slightly heavy in our 2s's with one person aboard and mine actually is a bit heavy with 2 souls on board. I have a small trim tab on the left aileron about 1 1/2" long x 3/4" and it is just taped on for the past 10 years. it has a very slight bend in it. It does not take much at all to get it trimed.

I got to the airport at around noon the winds were calm but by the time we got around to take off the winds were out of the west 5-8 knots we?departed ?on runway 18. I was really surprised how well it handles in cross wind take-offs and landings.?A friend?with a RV8 followed me around the patch for about 45 minutes to see how close my?ASI was to his, we were both indicating 140 knots.The oil and CHT stayed in proper range. I noticed I have a ?heavy port wing I had to apply right aileron input to maintain level flight.?I didn't use any elevator?trim and pitch control wasn't a problem.??????
