I have just put on my wings for the (hopefully) last time and have rigged
the flaps.  The down speed adjustment valve works well and I can set the
extend speed easily.  Flap retraction is another story.  It is too fast,
dangerously fast.  I have been reading remarks on this thread in the LML for
years now.  I even tried putting another restrictor fitting in the cylinder
but that didn't help.
Has anyone ever installed a second flow control valve in the system?  I am
planning to do just that unless there is a down side.  I feel the risk of
having the aircraft "sag" on a go around is just to large to ignore.
Any and all thoughts or experiences greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
