To: lancair.list@olsusa.com X-Mailing-List: lancair.list@olsusa.com Reply-To: lancair.list@olsusa.com Mime-Version: 1.0 <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<--->>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> << Lancair Builders' Mail List >> <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<--->>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> >> I am trying to decide if I should put wing walk on a 235 I am just completing. At Oshkosh and Sun-N-Fun about 50% of the Lancairs have wing walk and 50% not. The wing walk keeps the paint from being scratched up and saves having to carry a towel on which you may slip. Does it have a down side with regard to loss of lift and perhaps loss of speed or performance? Aircraft Spruce has a nice looking material which is made be MAC and comes in 26.5" x 9.5" strips. Is this a good choice?
