Rodney, thanks for the photos & dimensions on your trailing  edge fences . I'm ready to install fences - just a few questions for those flying with fences:

1) If you have trailing edge fences, how many are recommended on each wing?

2) I have a photo of a FG 173 with 3 fences on the leading edge. What's the difference in performance vs trailing edge?

3) Science requires replication of the experiment. Besides Rodney, is anyone else flying with trailing edge fences?

4) My primary objective is to reduce landing speed, and  increase control.  Besides VGs, which fence formula is best to achieve this goal?

Thanks in advance,

Dennis
