Default RE: Continuation of rational of trimming

Yes, but the most interesting point about Triangulation Trimming was the recommendation to start with the C/G at 25% MAC and go not far behind that. Incidentally, that results in the static margin being 25% or not much less. Dag and I use the same Plane Geometry spreadsheets, and I tried for the Integral pattern plane and got very similar results (maybe due to similar tail volume). It even basically works in the simulator, but not for Brushfire which I compared it to. Just would have liked to get an explanation (rationale).
