Spent a lot of time on the motor. Cleaning between the fins is a royal PITA! But what the heck - it's cold outside and I've got the heater on!- PVC prop guards and wing support prepping for trailering. PVC works in this case as the wing will be supported from the ceiling of the trailer. See other photo!
- This wing has not flown except for the test by the craftsman Mark Gibson. So far everyone that has seen this wing today agrees, this thing is heavy duty through and through. The stitching is immaculate and straight. All the batons came out of the box spot on using the chart.
- Steel wing carrier padded and attached to wing. Note forward straps (red) that hold the vertical position. Excess strapping tied off on prop - not used for support!
- Chose a new mounting location under the motor mount where there were pre-existing holes to take advantage of. Used steel angle iron to make the mount
- Shot of a Northwing trike in a 21' enclosed trailer. Note wing supports at the rear!
- Closer view of new mount. The mount is actually attached to a crossbar between the main motor mounts
- When I preflighted my trike, I noticed a very thin layer of frost on my wings. I knew frost on the wing was less than ideal, but I took off anyway....t of frost, like very fine sandpaper on the wing....ally into the sun to melt the frost off the wing....
- there was in 2004 in Championshop of Slovakia Lučenec. I have new SkyGlider wing 12,8sqm for 2 days :)
- Got this from the wing tip GoPro-- was showing the trip to my wife and she said, that's a nice shot!
