Larry, most of us use tufts taped on to observe airflow characteristics, but
I guess your method of using bugs works just as well!

Subject: KR> interesting observation




I'd flown the KR two or three hours since cleaning the lead edge
of the tail surfaces.  It's been rather warm here for November
and after todays flight, while wiping off the bugs, I noticed that
the bugs only collect on the outer 1/2 on the horizontal stab
lead edge.  I'm not going to try to interpret this but simply pass
along an observation.  Seemed interesting to me.  I guess the
bugs have not heard of laminer (sp) airflow, even with my
24" fuselage stretch.  Don't know why I hadn't noticed this before,
too busy YEEEEEE HAAAAAAAAing I guess. :-)
