The article in Sport  Aviation this month that pointed to the dimpletape site has gotten me to  thinking. However, I don't want to be stupid.   Mike Palmer has used  it on his Hartzell.  Has anyone used it on the wing? 

 Does it work on a  faster wing like ours or is it primarily for a high lift airfoil?  Tom  Hamilton chose our airfoil because it allows the air to stay attached a ways  past the thick part of the chord, lowering drag at higher speeds.  Should  tape be applied further back than on a slower wing?   Will it cause a  loss of lift in rain?  If anybody has thoughts on this I would appreciate  the discussion. The tape is fairly inexpensive at 4.95 per foot.  www.dimpletape.com
