Default RE: Fowler Flaps

Did you notice the price on those Robart Fowler tracks ? 75 bucks for 4 !

Seems like Hobby Lobby had an aluminum track set in the past. Real nice looking. I can't find them now. And they were driven by a worm drive mechanism. Sweet setup.

There have been a few articles in the past on building the Fowler tracks. Looks complex and it looks like they could jam easily if not built correctly. And nobody is building multi-segmented fowlers that I can tell.


Hey Flyboy, what did that RVSM altitude cost on the Westwind ? I have heard some absurd numbers.
