[NSRCA-discussion] Strange looking plane from Patrick Lemonnier

PL's approach will probably solve pitch in yaw problems, but it is not the way to solve those problems. Apparently they just haven't learned how to put the wing and engine on the fuselage.               Nat Penton

  Not strange at all, to me. My new design, Geisha, has the cannards much further forward. They are simply flow straighteners. The present schedules damand greater precision and balance (no coupling) from the designs than ever before, so this trend will become broader over the next few years

  Nat Penton was ahead of this curve by 25 years with his original Voodoo Xpress, where he employed flow straighteners/yaw enhancers. Took the rest of the pattern community that long to catch up with demanding enough schedules to really put such devices to the test.

  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.
