[NSRCA-discussion] Strange looking plane from Patrick Lemonnier

[White, Chris]

Hi Dean,

Just curious, but do you think we could learn anything from RAC about
flow dynamics considering all the aerodynamic devices hung on the Beech
1900 D???:)  

Chris:-)

Now that is funny!

Why, you ask? Because just yesterday I was on the phone with Matt K. and
said to him that the vertical part of the flow straightener (translation
for canaliser) was not really necessary. I said that the basic purpose
is to make the airflow track down the length of the tailcone, rather
than spilling around the top, as the plane is yawed. That improves both
pitching behavior and knife edge power. When I get the needed weather, I
will hang a little straightener on the Funtana to see what happens to
its strong push to the belly in K.E. What about chine strips? I'll have
to try that, as they could be less ugly, and even add structural
stiffness.

later,

Dean

	The lastest incarnation of PL Products has a very strange plane
called the Axial.  Take a look.  This makes the t-canalizer look good by
comparison.
