Hi guys,



I think the drawing John is talking about is probably a sketch that Chris 

sent me in response to my request to extend each wing by one foot for 

better high altitude operation.( Naturally aspirated engine performance as 

well as take off and climb performance degrades by about 4% per thousand 

feet due to the thinner air, I believe.)  I've not yet done the mod but I 

intend to and I'd be very interested in seeing the 1992 701 UL sketch that 

you have, Robert, could you E-Mail me a copy?  I'm also planning a slat 

less wing with VGs on both the wings and the elevator. In addition, 

I'm  considering a "cuff " that would put the wing nose profile midway 

between the wing with slats and the wing without but have not yet asked the 

factory about the " cuff ".  Has anyone done anything like this? I'd like 

to maintain as much wing area as possible without shifting the center of 

lift too far forward.



Thanks!



Dave, 701 with A-80-8 Continental

Excellent point,

  I have a drawing from CH that shows basically the same treatment on the

tip but the main structural change was lengthening the doubler at the

strut attach point and increasing it's thickness,
