Expect to install them March/April. I purchased them from Chuck. I understand that they are designed for laminar flow wing, Beech Star Ship, I think. Chuck reports no significant change in handling or speed. Hope he is right, but normally there is a few knots given up for the benefit. Regards, Gary Rodgers
