Read my post agine. That is exactly what I said and I was also indicating the use of mid cord spoilers to reduce lift. The whole point of my post which you seemed to have missed was to separate the quite major differences between mid cord spoilers and trailing edge spoilerons. Sorry for responding to your question.

I'm unclear on what I said that seems to have made you angry. I asked whether there is a term other than "spoilerons" for the kind of thing this thread seems to be about
: ailerons that can both be raised at once. To me, "spoilerons" are something different: spoilers (mid span on some planes, near the tips on others) that are raised one at a time for roll control. Your reply said that the spoilers on the P-61 were like those on gliders, which isn't accurate. I guess that's what threw me off. Sorry if I misread your reply, but it really didn't try to answer my question.
