“Once you have tasted flight, you will forever walk the earth with your eyes turned skyward,

for there you have been, and there you will always long to return.”

- Leonardo da Vinci

The KIS-4 nose has the tendency to come down quick on touchdown making soft landings hard to do. To help with this I installed STOL Speed brand vortex generators on the bottom of the horizontal stabilizer. With these I am able to make soft landings slightly more often than before. I also installed VG’s on the rudder but since they didn’t seem to make a difference I removed them. Here are photos of what I did.
