Default RE: Wing-Lift Increasing Idea (Tested by me)!!!!

As many have already stated, this idea is not new. In relatively near-term history, it is employed on the F4 Phantom, using engine bleed air, and is called BLC - boundary layer control. Its efficiency is noted in the wing's ability to maintain lift (not stall) at very high angles of attack.
