Question for Mark J.- Knowing that Mark L. has allowed for some adjustment in his horizontal stab for nose up/down trim, what has your experience been with the flights you've made so far? You have a MAC trim or similar, right? Has it trimmed out pretty level? Trim setting at cruise anywhere near the center of travel?
Ideally, you'd put a level on the top longeron where you leveled to do W&B and referenced wing incidence from, trim for level cruise at normal loading, and see how close it is to level. Alternatively, you'd do a low pass over a looonnng runway, level at cruise airspeed as you pass a photographer who would snap a picture as you passed by (before your pull-up to clear obstacles at the end of the runway), and review the picture to see how level the fuselage was. This would be more fun ;o) Oscar Zuniga San Antonio, TX mailto: taildr...@hotmail.com website at http://www.flysquirrel.net
