Thanks for the reference Doug. I'm sure someone in our club has that
issue. I'll look into it. Your 4" tost wasn't the 'Lilliput" as used
on the Libelle, was it? Those are fairly hopeless. The brake on my
Speed Astir is the same as the LS-4. Both are marginal. At least the
Speed Astir doesn't have the undercarriage issues the LS-4 does!


I would like to hear about the "undercarriage issues" with the LS-4.

Bob


??? Collapsing if the gas strut is weak??? But not an exclusive issue
to the LS4.
