Wing incidence .75 degree
Stab incidence .0 degree but carry some down elevator trim. (found I had .5 degree rather than .25 degree incidence to offset down elevator trim)
CG remains the same
Engine down thrust .2 degree

Joes set up is the same with the exception of engine down thrust (his is .5 degree) and slightly more forward CG.

Snaps, Spins, and stall turns on both planes are very good and predictable. Up and Down lines are also very, very good.


Thanks everyone for your suggestions. Now I can quit screwing with the plane and practice.

Todd

I'm sure glad you got your plane sorted out. Really though you had nothing to worry about as I was going to send my ole Falcon 56 to you to use for the Nats. Joe might take it along just to be safe.
