		  Has anyone put vortex generators on you Zenair and how did it  work?

  
	


 I put VGs on the bottom of my horizontal tail on my  801 and it gives the plane more control at low speeds.  I no longer run out  of elevator on approach.  I can now shoot stabilized approaches at 50  mph.  There was no noticeable change in cruise speed.  But, at 100 mph  who would notice?

Bill,



 Lots of us would like to see pictures of the VG's on your 801.  How about posting some 



 same control at low speeds would apply to the 701
