Am I missing something here?
Regarding the LNC2, my operating manual calls for empty wing aerobatics
only. Has this requirement been reduced with the addition of spar caps
on the lower wing skins or what? I am rather timid about doing
aerobatics with more than a couple gallons in the wings. What has
Lancair said to those of you without header tanks about Acro? Has
anyone had a failure of there bottom wing skin? Have you done any
calculations to feel good about 6 G's and a few gallons in the wings?
FWIW, I've tumbled my plane on several occasions. None of these
departures resulted in any significant unusual flight characteristics or
incipient spins. Depending on which way is up I usually ease the back
pressure and wait a potatoe. The nose falls through T-34 style. It's a
very docile departing airplane. Yes like many have mentioned one wing
tends to let go a bit earlier than the other. This causes no
significant yaw affect and stall recovery is accomplished with minimal
altitude loss.
