Now your blade style antenna can feather with the wind, netting you the least amount of drag possible. ;-) Why not mount it on the side of the fuselage and use it as an angle of attack sensor as well? And get Boeing to design you a MCAS so you are always safe from stall. |

If the pivot point was in the prefect place, then you wouldn't need to. Maybe fiberglass cover with counterbalance?
Thanks for indulging my silliness gents. I'll stop spamming the original poster here. Time to be serious. Happy New Year all of you. |

I have decided to install the transponder blade antenna on top of the fuselage, behind the engine doors, as per Schempp Hirth TN.
