I am building a smith miniplane and will hopefully have it finished in 6-8 months. I have a Aeronca Chief and was wondering how big of a difference there is in takeoff and landing techniques. Also, does anybody have any experience in changing the wing angle of attack? Also, I have seen several miniplanes with a sliding canopy. Does anybody know if there is an easily adaptable canopy? Thanks, Jim
