Extended Wings PDF Print E-mail

Extend each wing tip16 inches and move the ailerons and flaps outboard 16 inches add a "plug" at the wing root, STC SA2635NM.

Advantages:

 

  • Significantly reduced power off rate of decent.
  • Reduction in stall speed, with wing tips as low as 38 mph.
  • Better take off performance particularly on the water with flaps down.
  • Better hot weather and high altitude performance.
  • No reduction in cruise speed.
  • Improved low speed performance - Wing plug allows cleaner air across the prop and tail surfaces at full flap configurations.
  • Improved propeller performance in full flap configurations.  The "plug" moves the flap outboard so that there is now clean air across the prop in full flap configurations.
  • Reduction in forward pitching moment in full flap configurations.

We highly recommend this option when converting to a larger engine and propeller configuration.  The combination of the larger engine and propeller with the extended wings creates a Seabee that has to be flown to be appreciated.
