<P>I have heard that bumping up speedbrakes will dissipate a static charge.=
&nbsp; Don't know if true, but have heard it from more thatn one source.&nb=
sp; Obviously on a carbon fiber airframe it would have to be well grounded.=

<DIV><FONT face=3DArial size=3D2>&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; Sorry, can't comment on=
 any particular brand of static wicks.&nbsp; My impression is that a lot of=
 sharply pointed ends help with static discharge.&nbsp; That said, I was ju=
st at an air expo where I saw a couple of planes with static wicks made of =
just a piece of multistrand wire, maybe 12 ga, with the aft 3/8" stripped.&=
