Thanks to all for the great input on the heavy wing issue in my 9A. Pete Howell and Mel Asberry had sound advice on this issue. I tried flap adjustments with little results. A rerig really helped, and got the speed up a bit. The big problem turned out to be a dragging wing tip on the right side, resulting in a heavy left wing. I split and rebonded the tip after a careful resetting of the aeilerons and flaps to fix a 3/8" low tip. Test flight this weekend in very calm air revealed perfect trim with both tanks full. I am ball cetered, hands off, and fast.
Takes a while to get them trimmed up perfect, but I found it is really worth the effort.

All the best,
Chris
