<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Some more thoughts......</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>The Panacea is consistent with the
current design trend: big fuselage and smaller wing area, both
of which I think are very beneficial and make this type design superior
to other designs having less fuselage side area and larger wing
area. My perspective on this comes from flying a Smaragd for the
last 2-1/2 years. I have not seen anyone fly these "newer" designs and
not be improved by them. The smaller wing area (i.e., generally
higher wing loading than most designs) helps greatly with snaps, and the
larger side area makes rolling maneuvers effortless. Interestingly, the
Smaragd has only 850 in2 projected wing area. The side lift on the
Smaragd is so much more than the previous generation designs that you tend to
over do the rudder input at first; rudder needs to come in noticeably
later. Of course, it is not just side area that counts, it is the
distribution of side area.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial><FONT size=2>Designs like the Smaragd may not
appeal to everyone as the design has a fair amount of drag due to its
frontal area, and one needs to be conscience of this in order to avoid
slowing down too much in certain maneuvers. However, I find the drag
profile of Smaragd-like designs helpful in controlling airspeed as you
tend to control airspeed more by applying power (4-stroke being used
here) than by reducing power as was the case for designs of just a few
years ago. For me this results in a more
consistent performance across a range of weather
conditions.</FONT></FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>That screech on the Composite ARF models is
their signature sound. Since the aileron hinge line is on the top
of the wing, a large opens up on the bottom of the wing when an
aileron is raised a bunch, hence the screech. Usually when the planes
are assembled, guys trim back the plastic covers that are designed to seal
that gap, because they add a fairly stuff resistance to movement as proved
by the factory.</FONT></DIV>

<DIV>Seeing Todd fly both the Panacea and his new 35% Composite ARF was
awe inspiring to say the very least. I still would like to know what that
screech was that his plane made when he performed that last snap roll. He
is the best pilot I have ever seen in person. Single roll rolling circle
with a snap between each quarter,, sheesh!!!

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>I had an opportunity to observe (and
judge) Todd Blose's PAC "Panacea", designed by Tony
Stillman.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Even with so few flights on it, he looked
very solid, and the plane presented very well. I was amazed at
it's ability to stay put, and still have good penetration.
Looked great!</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>It handled the P-05 Snaps, and all those
Reversing Rolls with ease. First one of these I've seen, and
sure looks like it could be a real winner.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>BTW - the front end is so big, that if a
person ran the OS 1.60 with wrap-around header, there would STILL not
be any cutting required. The fuse opening is large enough to put
most other airplanes' canopies inside!!</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2> It was a surprise to
see something this large and easy to see...yet fly so well in those
conditions!</FONT></DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>
