Reynald's number
Dick,
I guess I'm not sure what you are taking issue with. If you go back through the posts, I think you'll find several that give pretty good intuition about why "big planes fly better" ( an assertion that I don't care for or agree with, in this simple form ), some of them in mostly non-technical terms. If anyone asking a question found that the answers weren't helpful, we sure didn't hear from them.
I think I will leave this discussion with a quote from Albert Einstein:
"Everything should be made as simple as possible, but not simpler"
