Lancair is certainly aware of the interest in a more aerodynamic hinge for the Legacy and as far as I'm concerned the Legacy is a beautiful plane except for the flap hinges.

To the best of my knowledge, the Legacy Innovation flap hinge fairings only fair the hinge at the wing to hinge point and do not fair the entire hinge. At least that is what my Legacy Innovation fairings do.
