[NSRCA-discussion] Strange looking plane from Patrick Lemonnier

RAC? Who or what is that? I'm probably just being dense.

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???:)

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.
