JS3 chatter

Ah, should have put the news in a fresh thread.

Anyhow, congrats to Jonkers.

I'm surprised that they haven't gone for a center-wing with two light short tips. The high wing is a natural for using a one-piece center wing. By eliminating the most complex structural and control joint, there could be a significant reduction in build time, cost and weight. Putting it together should also be easier.

I hope their considerations to go conventional (as opposed to for example the Mü31) will one day be discussed.

For those interested in the aero background, a thread I started a few years ago discussed the aero of higher positioned wings in a bit more detail: http://www.homebuiltairplanes.com/fo...ad.php?t=15371
