Rob Wolf quotes me saying awhile back that the long mount had no effect
on my 360 CG.I apologize for that false impression . I was so happy
about my engine cooling problems being solved and my indicated airspeed
up 5kts with the new cowl that I neglected to report fully as to my long
mount findings.The fact is my CG moved 1.7 in.forward and the very
troublesome pitch sesitivity has all but disappeared.It is like a
different airplane.I have the small tail also.I was considering retrofit
of the big tail but have, since flying nearly 50 hrs with the new mount
,decided it is not needed.I would however recomend to those that have
not installed there small tail to upgrade to the big tail.They do fly a
bit nicer.In addition I have installed Dick Reichels geared trim
system.It is wonderfull.For the first time I have a plane I can trim in
any configuration.It is very easy to retrofit also.

 Thank You and Merry Christmas to all
