As a strong advocate of power flarm I can't agree more. Every time I see those stock dipole antennas on a top of a glare shield it disturbs me. Our forward visibility is already restricted and those antennas are so awkward. Mine are in the nose of the glider since the early 27a do not have carbon on the nose. Works great. I recommended those with carbon nose to put the antennas below the glare shield with only the top sticking out. Looks much better and still working well enough. There are other solutions.
