Re: Centre section flop

I wonder if the flop lifting near stall has anything to do with the radiator on Model A powered aircraft vs not having the radiator?

Re: ASI question

Just my two cents. Best practice is a static port on the side of the craft, pressure in the cockpit can change based on various things thus changing the reading on your ASI.

Hope that helps.

Re: Where are the Piet Folks Based...?

Hi everyone, I'm in Fresno, California. I'm just starting the vertical fin from an Aircraft Spruce order. I've squirreled away 4 Model A engines in the shop and a 5th in a rolling 1929 Model A chassis.
