Why not just get the tricycle version of the kit? (The RV-*A kits) You sacrifice less than 2 knots in speed and have much better visibilty while taxying not to mention better ground handling too.

Thanks! I'm modelling this on G-SEVN (See www.rvuk.flyer.co.uk). The owner took me up in it a while ago and I was blown away by the whole experience. I might be ordering the first part of the kit later this year even though my fiance tells me she will kill me if I do - and if I survive that, I'd better learn to fly tailwheel pretty quick too! All the best, Matthew. ___ Flightgear-devel mailing list Flightgear-devel@flightgear.org http://mail.flightgear.org/mailman/listinfo/flightgear-devel 2f585eeea02e2c79d7b1d8c4963bae2d
