Query this.


A canard wing and a main wing (on a Cozy IV) reverse the rules of
decolage (compared to a Cessna 150x). Yes? Â*

If you are asking me if the angles of incidence between the tail and
wing combination and canard and wing combination on the Cozy are
different on each type I'll refer you to Nat Puffer.


I'm asking whether or not you understand the rules of decalage as they
apply to a pusher. Do they operate on the same principles of decalage as
they do in a Cessna? Or not?


Is the question about aerodynamic or geoemetric decalage?

LOL
