After flying the smaller Tiger for a year, it has become my "go-to" plane as it does everything well and is a good wind flyer. This morning I decided to tighten the covering on the wing as it has had a lot of hot sun cycles on it with our hot weather this summer. The covering shrunk very easily on the wood and open surfaces. There have been complaints that the covering Phoenix uses is like kitchen cabinet liner, but I like it. It is thicker so it does not melt through as quickly as Monokote does. Wing is like new again.
