    To Vortex Generate, or Not?

    Well right in front of the control surfaces are the best place I think for them but on the front of the airfoil that makes up the wing, like say maybe in the front 20% of the wing panel. This will keep a even flow of air at the trailing edge of a wing or surface in a post stalled situation. Or...

    3DHS --FLY LOW-- Always OFF TOPIC

    3DHS --FLY LOW-- Always OFF TOPIC thread Hit the nail on the head with that one. That is one of the reasons planes take so long to hot production after you hear about them. Some go pretty quick others take some time.
