why my plane stalls

guys, give the man a break; he is apparently trying to
learn something, albeit from a rather original angle,
and his question is not (IMHO and all that) out of place
in this newsgroup.

I.e., put yourself in his shoes, and imagine that you would
like to learn how, say, a submarine works (I know nothing
about submarines, so that's what I picked to illustrate my
point); playing around with a submarine sim would not be
the silliest way to get started, would it? actually he doesn't
just 'play around with', but actually went further and looked
at the code and the physics involved, which is quite a bit
smarter. Then, the next step of asking questions to submariners
sounds reasonable to me; now, let's say that all submariners
newsgroups happen to be in Russian (a language which I don't
master, hence the choice to illustrate my point, not just
out of cheap irony), chances are that I would not make the
best choice of words.

let's not scare away a potential new recruit! :-)
