November meeting in Brampton and had tail tips available for the
Rebel. I also brought a foam plug of the Hoerner Wing Tip. Everybody
liked it. I have 4 or 5 set spoken for and havent even tested the
part yet. My plans are to have a pair in flight test by the end of
December or early January 99. Tentative plans are to have the tips
mounted on 97MR and have all of the test numbers available for the
January meeting at Brampton. Hope to see you there. I'll keep you
updated if you wish. Note me back of you have anything to add or ask.
By the way, at the same time I hope to have a mold completed to
produce finish tips for the tail of the Elites and 2500 aircraft. AS
you may know the factory only supplies a small part to finish the end
of the horizontal and vertical stab. I plan on having parts to finish
the ends of the elevators and rudder.
