I keep a shoe string in the plane that I tie between the two halves so there will be a 1-3 inch gap at the top. This greatly enhances my airflow without blowing me out of the plane. One other pilot suggested leaving them clamped and sliding them off center so there's a gap at the bottom on one side. These low-tech solutions get the job done if you just need a few inches of gap. -- Ed Burkhead East Peoria, Ill. N3802H, 415-D
