I know you say don't use spoilers and flaps at the same time, but on fighters spoilers are quite often the only form of roll control. The prop jet I'm building is a Sepecat Jaguar. I know this doesn't have ailerons. Tornado is the same, it differs in that it uses differential taileron when the wing are swept.
Well that would be a different story now wouldn't it! I guess I should clarify and say don't use spoilers as speedbrakes or to spoil lift while also using flaps.
