Wow! It was not my intention to set off fireworks when I posted the "error"
in the ES manual regarding the H. Stab incidence.  Just to keep the record
straight, I posted the issue because it seemed important, even if the only
implication is the potential for running out of nose-up trim in slow flight.
It was characterized to me as an "error," not as a matter of "preference,"
though as others point out planes with the "error" apparently fly great.
Saying I was "surprised" was not intended to be incendiary, only to alert
other builders to check, double-check, and ask questions about important
steps in the process of building an "experimental" airplane.

And I want to echo the comments of Robert Stia that the Lancair people offer
great support.  They have been more than helpful to me every time I've
turned to them.  I'm glad I bought my Lancair kit, and I'd do it over again.
But I hope we all keep posting such information, because improving our
building experience and the flying qualities of our planes is what this
forum is all about.  And more ES posts!  There aren't enough of them.
