<DIV><SPAN class=399583617-19122003><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2>To
add to what Lee said. There is a choice of wing tube positions.
One for 2-c's and one for 4-c's. Translated that means if you have a heavy
engine,such as a DZ, OS 1.60 etc. use the forward position. If you
have lighter engine, Webra, OS 1.40 or Mintors use the rearward
position.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

<DIV><SPAN class=399583617-19122003><FONT face=Arial color=#0000ff size=2>My
stab TE is 3/4" forward of TE of the fin to allow for an internal horn
etc. I am familiar with, and have flown, both wing tube positions and
various stab fore and aft positions. All fly very well and you can't see or
feel any difference. As was said before, the incidence on the stab is
very, and much more, important.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>

style="FONT-SIZE: 10pt; FONT-FAMILY: Arial">I'am aligning a temptation for a
friend. I need to know the distance from the wing tube centerline to the stab
front (L.E.) There is no measurement on the drawings. Does the stab trailing
edge sit against the fin post? or does the fin post get cut out for the stab?
Kinda hard to tell from the drawings. Thanks in advance for any
help.</SPAN></FONT><o:p></o:p></P></DIV>
