Ski Flying March 24, 2013.
It was -5C this morning. The snow had settled to a depth of 3 feet. Note the "tire tracks" from the wheels penetrating through the ski bottoms. The drag created by the wheels results in 40% longer take-off runs over straight skis.
Location: Ontario, Canada

Leading edge slats allow my CH750 to do what it was designed to do... back country STOL flying. There are VG's on the underside of the elevator leading edge. I have VG's on my CH601HD...and no leading edge slats on it .
