REFLECTOR: VG's

[Dennis Martin]

Kurt,

What he said (John Abraham). He tested mine with VGs on both main and
canard wings. John, if you're still on this thread, can you recall how mine
flew relative to factory plane or other 173 FGE projects? I like how mine
seems to jump off the runway and how it lands, but I don't have enough
experience to tease out the differences.
