I have seen your plane and having been to your shop I am not surprised about the performance and longevity of your plane. I can attest to the fun of flying it even at the lowly 15 hr mark. I guess I asked the wrong question when I submitted the info regarding electrical discharge. One answer suggested making the IV-P a VFR clear of clouds airplane and the second one hinted about dreaming ... the plane is not pressurized yet due to so many squawks and not even interior panels are in. Any smoke or fuel in the winglets gets thru the leading edge of the wing (early in the construction an aluminum tube was placed at the front and a false spar of prepreg glassed to seal the leading edge for electrical conduit purposes and to seal any fuel leaks that builders were reporting then) so it goes thru the root into the cabin, I guess since the smell was pervasive in the cabin. I guess I wont be flying into dark clouds anymore... >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> LML website: http://www.olsusa.com/mkaye/maillist.html LML Builders' Bookstore: http://www.buildersbooks.com/lancair Please send your photos and drawings to marvkaye@olsusa.com. >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
