Well, that's true. Are we supposed to put AoA meters

Dud, have you ever heard of a *stall warning audio
annunciator*?
In sims I've installed an AoA meter, it's basically
an aerodynamic curiousity.

In a sim it's not aerodynamic. It's an electronic illusion.
And it won't mean much to the simmer who has little understanding of
AOA, never mind boundary layer control, stagnation points, stalls,
accelerated stalls, stall progression, leading edge radii, and the
like. BTW, "curiousity" is spelled "curiosity." And the "main wing" is
known among real pilots simply as the "wing."

" We don't need AOA indicators on control surfaces. "

Well Dan, try telling that to the "dud".
He's the genoius who want's them deployed
all over you body, sounds like a govmonker
trying to tell REAL pilots how to fly.
Like I said, most of the posters in this group
have never flown, I can tell, "dud", "bertie"
and a few others are total fakes.

All control
surface travels have well-defined legal limits as per the TCDS for any
airplane, and those travels are there to prevent their stalling. Those
things are, after all, just part of the larger surface to which
they're attached such as the wing, fin (or vertical stab), or
(horizontal) stabilizer. It's important to prevent any of those from
stalling, and limiting control surface travel is the way to do it.
You just discredit yourself immensely when you take a dig at a
guy like Dudley. Or at just about anyone else here, for that matter.

OK, back to aerodynamics.

Back to simming, you mean.

Nothing wrong with siming a low altidude recovery,
dude. It's cheaper to crash and burn in a sim than
to ****-up reallllllllly.
