Ian, lovely picks. And please don't disagree with me, but slats are so much more sexy than winglets, arn't they ? Picture a Fiescheler Storch with winglets :twisted: :twisted:

I was lucky to have my insurance in. Incidents like this is not in our hands. Will see what they pay out.

Hi Ian

Saw you guys relaxing at Kitty Hawk early morning while doing a low level. Good to see the Savannah again. Thought you might drop in at Rhino. Was a great morning for flying. !!!!

Piper PA32 Lance.First appeared in 1976.

It is basically a Cherokee Six fitted with retractable landing gear and a modified spar which increases the gross 200 lbs to 3600lbs.

In the late 70's Piper decided to give the lance a 'T' tail which has the disadvantage of adding substantially to the ground roll and can be a pain to remove snow so in 1980 they reverted back to the traditional design. End Quote
