I am planning on preparing the wing for speed brakes but not installing
them. The newer Legacy kits, serial #5 and later, already have pockets built
into the wing for speed brakes. It should be easy enough to wire the empty
pockets and cut them open at a later date if it is found that they are
necessary.
The main reason for not installing them right away are three-fold:
1. Simplicity, I want to build the airplane in the quickest and most simple
form. (though it will, as any plane this speed should, be IFR equipped)
2. Weight, I will add nothing to the airplane unless it is necessary.
3. As it stands now, this plane will probably take me 4-5 months of
full-time work to complete, why add to it? lol
