How Do you like those tips, @Mark? What did they do for you?

I love them.

According to Knots2u [knots2u.net] they reduce "drag while smoothing the airflow along the wing and control surfaces. By minimizing the vortices caused by the wing and actually having them start later, our tip gives performance increases without the usual penalties. We CAN get increases in climb and in cruise. We CAN reduce stall without adversely affecting handling. You may not think you’re taking off from a carrier, but you may think you are flying a new plane."

I cannot verify the claims because I did not take any readings before I put them on, and of course YMMV. BUT, I can tell you they do look great!

I replaced all the "tips" on my plane last summer, with new fiberglass parts from Stene (I had them do it as part of some other airframe work). Turned out beautiful.

I replaced my "nose bowl" with the replacement part from Aerofairings of Canada. That also turned out beautifully.

All those parts fit perfectly. Not cheap, but well worth it IMHO.

must have set you back a few AMUs...
