Default RE: 'Flapless' plane

The test flights use conventional control for the majority of the flight with the blown system only being switched in mid flight. Remember this is for conventional control, nothing to do with (v)stol or reaction control. Blown surfaces have been used in the past to "assist" conventional control surfaces but not for complete primary control.
