  • I was going through flap discussion posts and found you were contemplating an inboard flap extension. I think that will help quite a bit, you get more flap area, and, you get an end plate effect off the fuselage which should be like adding another ~50% to the new extension. Did you make the extension yet?

    Hi, sorry for the VERY delayed response. In January I bought a 100 year old house and restored the whole thing, and now I'm finally back to bearhawk building! I have constructed my flaps to eliminate most of the gap between them and the fuselage. I basically built the flap exactly per the plans but added an extra bay inboard. I left is so that if I ever change my mind I can literally cut off the extra with a band saw and have a regular plans-built flap leftover. I don't recall exactly how long I built them, but I can send you any info that may be applicable to you.
