[Stop fooling around with theory, guesstimates and exotic calculations - get an AOA and use it.] Scott Krueger, so what do you think of the AOA thingie in the Sierra Flight System ? I haven't started using it yet, but from what I know it is calculated and not measured. I don't think it takes into account the aircraft weight as it changes in flight, or from one flight to the other. Or does it ? Does anyone out there have Jim Frantz's AOA AND a Sierra Flight System ? (never know, with some people installing three SFS screens, DVD players etc...). How much of an airspeed change do you see when your airplane is heavily loaded as opposed to when it is light for the same AOA ?
