AOA, L/D, Clmax and LE slats are what exactly?.... Been out of the
whole sport aviation for some time and just trying to grasp it all over

I've also noticed that many common airfoils actually have a
_lower_ stall AoA with flaps down!


Like in a 172, notice the way the nose comes down with flaps?



When you lower the flaps, you change the angle of incidence. With a fuselage
that remained level during the change, you would have increased the AoA.

True, but we are more concerned with maintaining a given airspeed rather than
a level floor...


Some pilots are also concerned about having a good view
of the runway.



Yeah well, there are those kind of guys too...

I did that for a while but got a lot of flack about "unrecognized"
file formats. Maybe it's mroe common now?

But you are right about png's properties.
Very nice way.

Older versions of Microsoft browsers had this problem. Those of us who
switched to Mozilla or Thunderbird years ago don't experience that
problem either. In other words, there's really no excuse, if you have
problems viewing image formats, either upgrade your browser, or , better
yet, get a different one. Complainers should be told as much.

Wrong. It is best to use open source formats for universal
acceptability. Using MicroSoft proprietary formats is an invitation to
complaints.

That too.

Best I've seen is program called ACDSee.
I run v 3.1.
Later versions try to be a little TOO helpful for my tastes.
