Subject: [LML] Re: Leading Edge Tape

Oddly enough, it's called, and I quote, "Leading Edge Tape".  There's a
thread on this about a year back.  You have to Google "Leading Edge Tape" to
find it.  I buy the 1-inch wide variety and put it on wings, horizontal and
vertical.  When my airplane was in primer, which is soft, rain eroded the
leading edges.  There are pics posted on this about a year back.  Others had
similar experiences and many suggested leading edge tape.  I also use it to
seal the gap between inboard and outboard wings on my Legacy.  It has never
separated, in about 100 hours of flying, never pitted, peeled, or
discolored, and it did not pull up the primer when I pulled it off.  I think
it's too thin to disrupt the boundary layer, and so far forward that a
laminar layer almost certainly re-forms behind it.  

Being lazy, I buy it from Aircraft Spruce but I believe others may have
found it cheaper from glider supply shops.  They use it as gap sealer,
evidently.  One role of 36 yards had done two complete applications and has
a bunch left over.
