"Rodger & Betty Childs" Doug,Don't know why I didn't think of it earlier, but, why not make an angle ofattack indicator and mount it on the Grega as well as the various otherPietsat the field and see at what angle they settle in on landing as well as whatangle they stall at at altitude. Then when you get the Piet reworked andback inthe air, check it out against the other figures obtained. Of course, run thestall angle check at altitude first.Probably they will all stall at the same angle of attack and all settle into landat the same angle as well. Oh well, wheels first on landing I guess.Best of luck,Rodger ChildsGoing to work on the Piet tomorrow________________________________________________________________________________
