My girlfriend and I flew to Salt Lake City for T-Day. Great tail wind
going over. 435 kt miles in 3 hours. At one point we were doing 202
knots on the GPS.
The trip home was slower. 4 hours.
I noticed an interesting phemonemon. My flaps are set high and I
normally fine tune the degree of flaps based on fuel loading and the
location of the CG. Apparently, the flaps are not 100% symmetric, left
to right. At the full "UP" position, the left wing felt a little
heavy. Tapping the flaps down a few degrees removed the heavy wing. A
few more degrees gave me a heavier right wing. I found I could correct
an imbalanced fuel load with flap position.
