Just to update this site regarding Kip's tailwheel mod, I just test " drove" and flew with the 6" tailwheel on my Sonex. What a difference in taxi! Gone is all the noise and spine jolts which were so evident with the original 4" wheel. I highly recommend changing the wheels out.

Hi Chris,

I'm not sure where Kip is right now but his job keeps him traveling a lot. I'm sure he'll get back to you ASAP once he sees this.

OK, you found me, Chris!

I did not know that my mail was so selective but all of my responses have been replies from yours (?).

I'll get a bracket out today or tomorrow....!
