A friend in my club built a pair of winglets for his Standard Cirrus.
His glider is expirmental, mine is not. The total cost for him was just a hundred dollars for supplies, and some free guidance from a local IA/AP. The finished product looks fantastic! The mold came from an American Spirit, which I believe is a copy of the Ventus. And the result is that his handling has improved quite a bit. He did do some adjustments on the toe-out angle to fine tune it which supposively helped. I would like to do the same thing with mine using the exact same molds. My Cirrus is a standard airworthiness certificate. If I were to do the factory winglet or the Maughmer winglet, the cost is between 3,000-5,000 when it's all said and done. So that being said, this option, looks very appealing. Has anyone in this group dealt with the same sort of deal? I would be willing to change my standard airworthiness certificate over to an expiremental if that is the best solution. Any guidance is much appreciated. Thanks, Scott PS Happy Thanksgiving. |
