To group,

I believe there has been some misinterpretation of new products coming from Arion Aircraft.
We do not have a longer wing and have no design for one.
We have designed a wing tip extenision for the current wing plan form that will increase the wings area and with a slight up swept tip improve its efficiency. We do not have any longer ailerons as of now. With the current wings aileron effectivness we may not extend the ailerons at all , if the feel is to heavy but still effective we will simply re gear them, and only if needed extend the ailerons for the new tips.
Just wanted to clear this up a bit.....

Nick,
I knew that it was a wingtip extension, but didn't know about the aileron.  I guess when I moved away we were still discussing the possibility of a longer aileron, but if you don't think it'll need it, no reason to go to the trouble. Do you have any early pics of this mod yet? Also, how does the new canopy latch mechanism work. I know that you said that you can open it from outside, but can't really tell much from the pictures on the site. I'm still going to meet with Buz's friend down here and see if I can get him interested in the Lightning, but he's busy with astronauts and cosmonauts right now. Have a good one Arion crew. Brian W.
