KR>Ailerons

2008-10-12 Thread Colin & Bev Rainey
Someone correct me if I am wrong but my impression was that we have differential ailerons, so their up travel will be different from their down travel, just so long as both sides are the same. This is used to counter adverse yaw. Colin & Bev Rainey KR2(td) N96TA Sanford, FL c

KR>Certification

2008-10-12 Thread Colin & Bev Rainey

a great measure of safety. The Adam aircraft has to have an indicator light tell you you have lost an engine because there is next to no response from the airplane, except a slight loss of airspeed. It truly is something worth thinking about... Colin & Bev Rainey KR2(td) N96TA Sanford, FL c
