In response to Dan Schaeafer's message about reflexing the ailerons as is
done with the flaps I to am interested in doing this in my 235.

I first read about reflexing the ailerons in the Lancair 200 Mail
newsletter, April 1988, Volume 03, Issue 04.  As part of the "320 Update"
the author wrote that during the initial flight test "the harmony between
pitch and roll was considerably closer than with the 235 model for several
reasons."  The third point listed was that "the ailerons were rigged to a 7
degree reflexed position all the time which measurably reduced the load on
them."

I am not yet at the stage of construction when I can offer any real
solutions other than to say that it appears that reflexed ailerons were
tried successfully, at least initially.  I do not know if the current 320's
and 360's still have a reflexed aileron.

Please let me know if you decide to proceed and if so, how your aircraft
changes.

Good Luck
