Please post or copy me on any recommendations. I was looking over an
article in RCM last night about this plane and I'm seriously considering
it for my second plane to build.  The reviewer was a little negative
on the plans and building notes. Have they improved?

I do have a specific question about HLG's: how good is the
performance? Do they thermal well? At all?

Me too! THANKS! (To the net - For your past advice and discussion.
I've really enjoyed and welcomed the conversations)
