Can I send a photo on SERV? If so here is the strake. I will also send it to Larry and he can post it if not.
Today I got fairly smooth air and believe the things work. Full flap stall speed seemed to drop from 60 MPH to 55 MPH. Also the shutter is gone.
Look at the leading edge of the wing and look for the cross pattern of rivets on the fuselage. The middle of the cross is the rivet you drill out and replace with a countersunk screw (nuts on inside of gear legs). The other three holes are just drilled and screwed the same way. A backing plate is recommended. The aft tail is set to 1.125" above the wing.
Tape will work well if you want to test them yourself. But if you loose them you buy Cappy a new set.
Later,
