Default 'Speed Pants'...

It's likely the 12 mph speed increase is in comparison to an airplane

that has no wheel pants at all. You might get 2 mph out of the closing
doors.

I was thinking the same thing. Doesn't justify the cost nor the
complexity and upkeep, unless you bought it for the WOW factor.


OTOH, they might be an interesting work-around for LSA... (smirk)
