I changed the subject line
I received the 3:1 strut fairings on Friday afternoon from U-Fly-It . They seem to be of very good quality. It took most of Saturday to align and install then over my 1 1/4” standard Kolb lift struts. Attached with 4 pop rivets. I closed the ends in with some dense form and sealed them some white Flex-Shot. The they look great.
I haven’t been able to get any performance figures yet because of rainy weather. I’m not expecting much change. I’d be trilled to see 5 mph at cruise. I took some cruise rpm and airspeed readings last week in calm air to get a rough baseline.

We are vacationing on the NC outer Banks this week. We went to the Wright Brothers Memorial today. While we were there several planes took off from the strip on the property. I was just wondering is anyone has flown their Kolb in there. It looks like it would be a memorable experience.
