More up elevator would probably do it for starters. There's only

to get you to crit alpha, no more, thats one reason why power

helps,

True... I was only thinking of rigging n the fly-straight sense,

not
elevator -- duh.

This particular airplane seems to have weak right rudder -- 10

knot
x-
wind is more than it can handle in a slip -- rudder is to the

stop,
while left I can easily stay straight banking much more steeply

(this
is in approach, so left turning tendency is not a factor).

Yet the airplane appears to fly straight...

I suppose it's asking alot of a 44 year old airplane for

everything
to
be in perfect harmony!

A 44 year old anything.



Hey...I haven't been in perfect harmony for a LONG time :-)


unless you count eveything falling apart in equal portions as

harmony!

Bertie

You might just have a point there :-)


i've only got one part at a time faiing at the moment, fortunately. I
suppose my time will come..

Yeah; growing old is surely no fun, but the alternative is not so good
either :-)

Well, there's a group trying to live forever! You could always try
it..on the down side I think it means a lot of cold baths. On the up,
you have to have sex every day.

I'm sure you can find lots. I heard it in a talk radio interview years ago.
As well as that they just about live on anti-oxidant food and drink wheat
grass juice every day, IIRC. The sex thing sounds good though.

Bertie


Really, ok, some wheat grass and fake vitamins, I think my system can
handle, as long as the rest were required and provided.

Here you go. I think this was probably them. Prolly too left wing for
you though.

They probably wear sandals made from hemp and believe that war is
something that shortens life as well

Bertie


Dude, sex or war..I'm a soldier, not an idiot.
