Default RE: Prolog


ORIGINAL: Silent-AV8R

I guess my point was that the "new" Prolog looks a lot like the Nuance. I recall earlier posts saying the "new" Prolog seemed to roll better than the original. Other than the canopy, landing gear and color scheme, is everything the same as on the original?
Brandon and I are the only ones to have flown the new Canopy on a Prolog. It was cold and windy the day we flew. We both thought that it rolled slightly better. Nothing about what we felt was scientific.Itsjust how it felt tous.
What I think is the canopy modification adds a little bit more side area to the fuse near the CG. I think this helps the fuse to create more lift so based on that alone I'd say it should roll a little easier.
The main reason for the canopy and paint scheme change is estetics.
Chris and I are looking to sell airplanes. Sexy looking pattern planes outsell ugly planes 10 to 1. Trust me we know!
I feel the Prolog SEby F3AUnlimited looks pretty nice. It also flys really good. It makes what we do a lot easier.
I'm hoping others agree.
Thanks, Mike Mueller
