The reason you bounce when they don't is the slope of the lift curve. Thesteeper the slope the harder the bounce. Of course there is no reason totest the Piet airfoil since there is nothing to be learned about Pietenpolsand no one should ever consider making any changes to an already "perfect"design.Hank (Running for cover) J----- Original Message -----
