I made my first flight today after installing the elevator VG's.  They 

seem to work as well as advertised.  I did several flaps deployed 

landings with the engine at idle (practiced at altitude first) and had 

positive pitch control albeit a little slow to respond.  My landings 

were 5 mph slower than flaps up landings.  I am sure I can get slower 

but the nose high attitude still creeps me out some. 



I tried full stick back flight (at altitude) and chickened out when the 

angle got too steep for my brains sense of self preservation.  You can 

really feel the torque effect of the engine at those attitudes and slow 

airspeed.
