    After the de-twisting fix (see earlier post) and some re-shaping with
micro & e-glass, my first ES tail did end up pretty symmetrical.  If there
was some net yaw, it wouldn't have shown up anyway, since the rudder trim
tab has terrific authority -- a tiny bit one way or the other would have
cancelled out any effect from the tail not being perfect.

    As for the new tails, I sent a FAX to Lancair on Wednesday and got a
call back Thursday morning from Linda N., with more or less the same
explanation given to Marv by Orin.  [Since I'm gone for most of the summer,
I'm the one who's delayed 'til October.]  Sounds like the new tail will be
much improved -- let's hope.

Jim Cameron
