>> I thought that with its ground plane uppermost one could
instal it inside the fuselage, at the roof - as long of course as the
groundplane remained horizontal or coned upward? Cheers, Ferg
Get rid of that large metal pipe running through the fuselage and it'd
be fine at the top. :-)
Most people are happy to make a bracket in from the fuselage side and
house it out of sight.
I am surprised how some aviation radio specialists haven't clicked to
the fact that fiberglass planes are not the same as metal planes. We had
an active GPS aerial fitted to ZK-UBD last year and the guy who fitted
it put it on the outside of the aircraft rather than inside. He looked
quite surprised when I showed him that it worked just as well under the
skin!
