Default ASW 27 wing tip wheels

Are you guys talking about a full size glider or a model?

My friend who has a -27b would love to have wing tip wheels but has been
told that it's too difficult given that it's a Standard Airworthiness
ship.Â* Is attaching tip wheels with double sided tape a no-no, a 337
mod, or simply a log book entry?

Otherwise try 240% cm output.

It's the curse of "freedom units". I know, troll bait, but I dont have 12 fingers, or 3 arms, and unfortunately I dont have 5280 hairs on my head anymore, so I have switched to a logical system to the extent allowed...
