Hey Joe or Jim!

I am just finishing a new 87 SHP and was thinking of adding vortex generators-

I have read some of the info that is around but wondered, do you still think this is a good addition to this airframe and could you give a material size you used? (my guess - plastruct styrene angle 3/8?).

Thanks a bunch! - see you again at Nall?

:)

Hey,

Vortex generators do help some on this airframe, but the added benefits of having them doesn't even come close to out weighing the pain they are to put on, maintain, travel with, ect....

I won't be putting them on anymore big stuff I think, just not worth it.

If you decide to, I think used 3/16 styrene.

Yup, see you at Nall :)
