That plane is to have the hot wing "Evade" de-ice installed from Columbia. The pilot is unsure if the VGs will remain after that.=20 Robert M. Simon ES-P N301ES =20 -----Original Message----- From: Lancair Mailing List [mailto:lml@lancaironline.net] On Behalf Of Lorn H Olsen Sent: Friday, December 01, 2006 3:10 PM To: lml Subject: [LML] Leading Edge Vortex Generator Tape I saw a Columbia a couple of days age from the Cincinnati, OH dealer. =20 The leading edges had leading edge tape. On the inside portion of the wing the leading edge tape had small, what looked like, vortex generators. The vortex generators were spaced about every 1.5". Has anyone else seen, used or have an opinion about this tape? The Columbia is a certified aircraft. Does the tape have to be on the plane? Is the tape STCed? -- Lorn H.
