RV wingtip test flying

Post by Jimmy Cox »

I am looking for someone to test fly a different design wingtip for the RV wing. It is designed by Reg Finch and was in the March 1984 Sport Aviation Magazine. If you might be interested, or know someone who might be interested, email me for more info at jcox@extremecomposites.com . I have a copy of the article I can email to anyone.

Thanks

Jimmy Cox

Reg Finch test flew this design on a Sierra. He had a slower stall speed, increased rate of climb and a slight increase in top speed.
Anyone interested?

I'd be interested, but I'm a LONG way from flying :)
