Hi,

There are no issues on the low stab. It is still above the duct flow, however, what you can do is to make a piece of wood that covers the stab on start-up so that it would get some cover in case of a wet start.
Kerry Sterner is in USA, I am in Malta (Europe) and the plane flew in Malta.
Its a nice plane...I am impressed by its slow flying capabilities. I reckon its an ideal turbine trainer. Has a large wing area and at around 26lbs weight the plane flies real slow. Landing were a non event..straight down.
I have a short video of the plane landing which I took with my photo camera but unfortunnately I do not know how to load this video on here.

Some other photos have been included again
