    Glider "zig zag" tape did wonders for my Glasair III. I was having trouble
having enough "nose up" elevator to flare properly.  I applied it about three
inches forward of the horizontal- elevator hinge line and I then had enough
elevator power to hold the nose off of the ground after tough down.  Prior to
that it would band down immediately upon the mains touching.

Jim,

Did you put the tape on the top or bottom of the elevator?
