plane. The airplane makes a great towplane and by removing the rear
stick and turning the rear seat around, you can face backwards for the

part of valor. We came right back and landed.

Ground effect effectiveness by
Tony
I haven't found a decent reference for this -- can anyone help?

P39 elevator & aileron construction? by
Chris Wells
I recently visited the Niagara Aerospace Museum (thumbs up!) and got the opportunity to see a P39 Airacobra close-up...and I noticed that the elevator and ailerons (& possibly the rudder as well) were fabric-covered, instead of aluminum like the rest of the plane. Is this the way they were built?
