'Speed Pants'...
"Flyingmonk" wrote in message
oups.com... It's likely the 12 mph speed increase is in comparison to an airplane that has no wheel pants at all. You might get 2 mph out of the closing doors. I was thinking the same thing. Doesn't justify the cost nor the complexity and upkeep, unless you bought it for the WOW factor. OTOH, they might be an interesting work-around for LSA... (smirk) Peter
