My ES kit was delivered at the end of February, sans aileron skins,
rudder, vert stab, panel, and a few other things. When I asked what was
going on, I was simply told that the vert stab was being re-done; so far I
have no delivery date.
Yes, the original molds gave a twist to the tail if you didn't jig it
during construction, and the airfoil was not symmetrical, but it flew OK.
IMHO there are other things that should have been higher priority, like
getting the jigs for the FB horiz stab corrected so the elevators can be
mounted properly, getting the wing jigs corrected so that the TE thickness
matches the ailerons, making mold joggles deep enough, etc., etc.
It seems to me that the ES is getting the ugly sister treatment, and
I've expressed my unhappiness to Lance and crew. In the three and half
years between my 1st and 2nd kits, nothing much seems to have been changed.
They're still handing out a manual for the standard kit, which isn't even
sold any more!
