Jim,
Have you made the outriggers longer incrementally over the years or in
one fell swoop?
Would you venture an opinion as to whether or not the shorter legs
were advantageous initially as you familiarized yourself w/ the mono?
Sounds like you've had excellent results w/ the smaller tire at higher
pressure on the hardsurface runways you use...thanks for putting your
oar in to this discussion.
