RE: Ed Kazmurski's Taurus
Yep, the problem with using the standard Taurus in any aerobatic comp is the unpredictability of the spin. In competition the airplane must be able to stall, and 'on command'. Regardless of its other attributes this one failing is what prevents it being the competition aerobatic airplane it could be, or should have been. I did not know, before this thread started, that a symmetric airfoil was developed for it and it seems strange that Ed persisted with the 2400 series wing for so long, Dunham had flown a symmetric airfoil on the Voltswagen, deBolt had started using them, and Ed would have known about it for sure. Oh, well, anothe Taurus mod to be done, I guess.
