Now, you are hitting the nail on the head. That is what I was trying to get across on my first post on this subject. Is the effort really worth the increased drag, when the board with NO holes has worked on many KR? Even if you go to all that work to fill the holes when the board is up, you are never going to be able to get a smooth surface, thus, will you be able to eliminate all the drag caused by the holes. Everything in Aviation is a compromise, just pick your poison and build the thing or you will be too old to fly it.
My Panther Building Documentation at PantherBuilder Web Site Daniel R. Heath - Lexington, SC -----Original Message----- I always suspected that holes would give you more drag, and this confirms it. But the problems with holes is how do you keep them from causing drag when you're not using the belly board
