I too flew production aircraft unpainted, or painted whichever flavor
production gave me, but in a production environment all these things are
tested long before we got them, and everything is predictable. The early EZE
wings and particularily the canard exibited unstable conditions with leading
edge stripes on them that were not completely faired into the rest of the
paint.

I have been flying for 2 years with unfaired leading edge tape on all of my leading edge surfaces. At altitude I can fly at 65 mph with 35 degrees of flaps but the plane still doesn't feel stable below 100 mph on final.
Are there any opinions as to instability caused by leading edge tape on the LNC2?
