Default RE: Phoenix 8

Hi Bob:
I beleieve there was an issue with the placement and size of the canopy. It was to be placed a little further reaward and also was to be a little taller. Seemed top help the KE flight and some stability issue. Thus the Phoenix 10 Don Lowe is currently flying.
This is if what I remember is corect.
I had a Phoenix VII and made some of these chamnges then, it helped tremendously.
All in all, I liked the way it flew. Steady, fast and very smooth but responsive....oh to have another one.
