Re: New Nose Wheel Fin
I'm supposed to be getting one for my 2007, so when it comes I'll mount it and post some pics. I am also anxious to see if it makes a difference, so I'll post those results too once I get to make a flight with it.

Re: New Nose Wheel Fin
So I have a 2004 but I have heard that there are different wheel fairings.. Does anyone know this to be true? How can I tell if this would fit my airplane?

Re: New Nose Wheel Fin
Your profile says you have a DA20 - I don't think the fin applies to you.

Re: New Nose Wheel Fin
If you have the "speed gear" you need the new one. We fat tire gear owners need the original one. Perhaps paradoxically the easiest way to tell is by looking at the main gear fairings.
