Just wondering if anyone knows the history behind the change in gear length from the 6A to the 7A/9A.
I compared the tail heights between the 6A and 7A at the Copperstate Fly-In this past weekend. The tail height of the 6A's were approximately 6 feet while the 7A's/9A's were almost 8 feet. That is a rather substantial change.
I know the rudder is a bit taller but the majority of the difference is in the gear leg lengths.
What is the reasoning behind the change?
