I have been to the dark side and can report that they do in fact have cookies.

Hmmm I thought that the Cherokee had a relief system, so water ballast is
covered

the only problem with the water system on the Cherokee is there is no in flight dumping option...8

I have a modified BG-12 in the driveway (Neidrauer NG-1) so I can fly with flaps whenever I want to. I love the 5:1 glide with full flaps on approach. Exhilarating! I need to saw its wingtips down so that it is 15 meters instead of 50 feet though...
