The Lifting Stab Myth
Today's topic comes to us courtesy of DJ Aerotech. We hear a lot of discussion regarding "Lifting Stabs" in the OT community but it's not really discussed among people who fly R/C gliders or full size aircraft. Perhaps, it only had value to these designs as a contributor to their flight patterns in the Freeflight mode but is really a detriment in the glide?

Once there were GIANTS
Boehle Giant build by the Ft. Wayne group hanging in the AMA Museum in Muncie, IN.
At fifteen feet, the Boehle (pronounced: Bailey) Giant by Vernon Boehle was an impressive model in its day. Vernon went on to join one of the Eagle Squadrons in the RAF. Here is a link by a modern day engineer who has decided to revisit the Giant.
A modern rendition of the plan can be viewed here
