AOA flaps
hey guys i had another idea today, (im full of 'em)
could you have the plane change its main wing angle of attack instead of deploying flaps from say +3 to +10 or something like that?
anyway just a nother idea.
I will put the plans up for skippy once i get him flying (it is about 32" wingspan vtail design im working on)
anyway later guys

RE: AOA flaps
Several carrior jets have done this. The A7E Corsair I think is one. Raised the front of the wing for ladings. Think it had more to do with the limited landing gear travel and the fuse's orientation on landing.
