Thanks" The wingtip extensions do not carry fuel. The Glasair II is the one with= fuel in the tips. To fit them you have to strengthen the wing tip rib an= d joggle so that the joggle is wider and 8 bid thick. You also have to bee= f up the main spar bolt attach points. The tips, in my experience, actuall= y make no difference to the low level performance on my 320 with the large tail. They reduce the roll rate slightly and make landing a little easie= r. Stall speed is a few knots lower. I have yet to do a high altitude long= range trip - which is why I spent the extra 500 hours building the extensions. When I have some data I will share it with other LML'ers. michael (LNC2 MkII G-FOPP, Cranfield UK) Dr Michael A Fopp = Home Office at 12:51 on 14-Jul-01 Private email add:- michael_fopp@compuserve.com >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> LML website: http://www.olsusa.com/mkaye/maillist.html LML Builders' Bookstore: http://www.buildersbooks.com/lancair Please send your photos and drawings to marvkaye@olsusa.com. >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
