Joe,

Thanks for the information on the Encore flaps.  It has seemed to me that one of
the advantages of the aileron style DLG is that it has much less dihedral and
therefore the centrifugal forces are better handled by the wing versus a
comparable polyhedral DLG.  How much extra dihedral did you put in there, and do
you feel that you are stressing your wing more on hard launches because of
this?  You also mentioned that you split the aileron into two equal pieces.  Do
you still feel this is the "right" proportion of flaps and ailerons?

P.S. My Encore is still on the shelf, so changing dihedral and running more
wires is not a problem for me, yet.
