Vortex Generators

[JediNein]

The Microaero Vortex Generators are AWESOME!

I have flown eight different aircraft with them and generally find the following:
1. Increased climb performance (Rotate @ 29 kias, climb out at 45 kias in 1957 C182.
2. Docile stall character (stalls straight ahead, noses down, dances around without ever really stalling -- hanging on the prop)
3. Cruise performance within a knot of unmodified cruise.
4. No adverse effects in icing conditions (P210 certified in known ice encountering light mixed.... not gonna find out what moderate ice is until I'm in a BIG Boeing)
5. Line guys haven't broken any off, yet. There are spares included in the kit in case they do.
6. Vanes stay on, even when wet or being washed.
7. Put vanes on AFTER the new paint job cures.
8. Scrawny folks with little muscle strength can now land nose-heavy P210s and C182.
9. Stops the 'fall out of the sky' character of certain hershy-bar winged aircraft. Not yet sure what it will do to the C336 (and I can't wait to find out!).

and the biggest problem:

Do NOT put you hand on the vanes to pull yourself up to check fuel or get the fuel cap off. OUCH!!!!!

The red mark does go away after a week. . .

Fly SAFE!
