 I used 3/8 inch thick TE on a Prophecy style wing. Well it was a Prophecy wing.

  Hi Guys,

   

  Thanks for the input.

   

  Now for the million dollar question. What sort of trailing edge thickness are we talking about in order to feel a difference?

  The Windtunnel article by Barnaby Wainfain, Dec 06 Kitplanes, discussed controll effects / drag of thick trailing edges. Unfortunately I gave my issue away. I do recall it was all positives for the thicker TEs.           Nat
