Default DG-101 - increase performance/sealing/winglets(?)

Good point!Â* My friend's '27 as a very large area along the fuselage
side which is perfect for applying sealing tape.Â* My LS-6, mentioned
above, had a deep groove in the canopy, perfect for the silicone treatment.

Dan, did you apply that to the canopy side or the glider side?

Matt

Canopy side. Most canopies have a concave structure that sits over the lip on the cockpit side. Easier to run this stuff around the concave portion since it won't move then.
