    If you can understand our South African accent, I think you'll all find this very interesting.
    Enjoy!

    Interesting video Reid and yes, lots of effort invested in discovering what is going on when the 7 SS is taken this deep into the stall. The influence of v.g.’s on the top of the windshield is interesting as is the potential of a root fence in postponing or preventing tail stall until well after the wing gives up it’s lift.

    Thanks guys, but I am just a farmer and not clever enough to think of researching these things

    These guys live in the Transvaal, about 600 nautical from me. I hope they join this forum at some stage, because they are good thinkers......

    I enjoyed their research thoroughly!!
