Spotted over the weekend, interesting. The flaps are huge, slotted, and fowler type I believe, different then normal anyway.
That picture must be of a test mule for Aviat. http://registry.faa.gov/aircraftinquiry/NNum_Results.aspx?omni=Home-N-Number&nNumberTxt=947I spoke with Stu Horn, owner of Aviat, last year at OSH, and he alluded to upcoming changes on their prototype.....it will be interesting to see what kind of performance they come up with.

It's only money Wayne. 8)Great, Where and how do I get mine? Banner planes need these kind of mods. I'd really like a cuffed leading edge like Crosswinds on this Cub Airfoil. Apologies to SC crowd for using an ersatz imitation Cub. It's all the money my wife would allow me.

I'm looking forward to flying my Husky this summer, bought a gravel bar flip over and have it almost done. Never even had a ride in a Husky so should be fun. The only drawback thing I've found is Aviat is tough to do business with but there are several aftermarket parts available. The plane is really nice to work on and well thought out.

The factory test Husky in the photo not only has slats, extended gear and new flaps it also Dan's T3 tailwheel shock.
Yeah I forgot to point that out, but figured sharp eyes here would catch it.
One thing I have not heard commented on, I saw a Husky once undergoing an annual, and for the first time noticed all the REMOVABLE side panels along the fuselage. That struck me as going the extra distance to make long term maintenance and inspection as easy as possible, and if the rest of the thing is built like that small detail, it was impressive. More importantly, my next home built will have such a feature if at all possible, I'll steal good ideas where ever found.
Did you count the screws? How many maintenance hours does it take to remove and reinstall them during an inspection?One thing I have not heard commented on, I saw a Husky once undergoing an annual, and for the first time noticed all the REMOVABLE side panels along the fuselage.
