I don't follow this. The trim surface operates in
the opposite direction to the trimmed surface and
takes area away from it.

Explain
please?

What area stuff?

Cheers

that area stuff. ...which shows a total lack of aerodynamic
understanding.

Still don't know what you're talking about! Most of that
thread has

spooled off my main server now..

He's trolling.

He's not, he's right. Deflecting a tab in the oppostie direction
doesn
't
remove area.

It reduces effective area.

No, it doesn´t. The area is stil there. The tab isn´t "hiding"
because

it´s going the other way, it´s just doing something different. it may
be reducing the effectiveness of the surface, but that isn´t the same
thing as reducing the area.

Nope. Effectiveness is proportional to area -from the old lift
equation.

Sure, but the area hasn't changed.


Don't be so literal, how could the actual sq feet chnage? BUT it's as
if the effective area at the AOA of the stabilator is reduced -right?

Cheers
