I am not comparing it to any thing specific I just would like more
aileron authority .
The velocity does need more rudder control in the patten I understand I
probable have 150
plus landings in my velocity . I just was looking to see if there is
any advantage to fences. Right now I am
not a fan of VG's just because i like the top of the wing with out a
bunch of fins to catch on.
