I'd be interested in more info on VG's on an XL also. This seems
like a two edged sword. You would likely lower the stall speed, and
maybe shorten the takeoff run, but wouldn't you also lower the
maneuvering speed by a similar amount?

Please note that I asked for the name of the vendor... sorry if I
got everyone excited.
I have talked to people who have installed VG's on other aircraft
and reported measurable improvements. For example, Kenmore Air
Service in Seattle was operating two super cubs on floats. One had
VG's. I spoke to one of their instructors who said the AC with VGs
outperformed the other by quite a margin.
I am seriously considering VG's for my XL and am interested in
whatever info I can find on the subject.
