wrote: I don't know about the Bo in particular, but on some airplanes the flaps contribute more to drag than to lift. On a Beech Sundowner, flaps will help climb at *exactly* 75 MPH IAS. Any faster or slower and the performance drops off significantly and you'd be better off without flaps. The performance graph looks like an inverted, rounded Vee, and I've verified it at altitude. |
