Hunsta Posted March 8, 2020 Author Share Posted March 8, 2020 Loved mine, flew it all over NSW and Vic. Had it for 10 yrs Great aircraft if you are not in a hurry. Would have another in a shot. Ever fly it without the fuselage skin? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Downunder Posted March 9, 2020 Share Posted March 9, 2020 I'm guessing it would be more draggy without the skin which is less of an issue if you are going slow anyway. It might take a few knots off cruise and increase fuel consumption but offset against easier and cheaper construction. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It may have less surface to attract a crosswind. But propeller slipstream may be altered abit over rear control surfaces Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
