droop tips and buying the speedster type from him and putting those
on but after your report, I think I will keep what I have.

Hey, I've got an idea! Why not put one type of wing tip on one wing
and the other on the other wing. Then whichever wing rolls up
obviously has the better performing wing tip. Pretty scientific, eh?
Wat'dya think?

I suppose it would be but I would guess you might never notice. On the other
hand the droopy style is ugly every minute of every day for those who
dislike it. I am solidly in that group. I delayed installing them, I trial
fitted them a dozen times and finally accepted that installing them would be
a huge error for me. I think they are awful.
