Thank you. Glad to be a part of RCU.

Thank you also for the Wikipedia link and for taking time to mark up the attachment. Any thoughts on flaperons instead of flaps?
You are welcome.

There is some controversy around flaperons; I don't like them myself.
If a little strip flap of 1/8 chord would be effective enough, why airplane designers would make bigger flaps?......or why they wouldn't extend flaps to the entire span?
