Re: Paul Davis' post about trying to pick up a stalled (or nearly stalled)
wing with ailerons.
No argument here, Paul, your post is right on! I might only add that besides
increasing the drag, and therefore the adverse yaw into the down wing,
trying to pick up the down wing with a downwardly deflected aileron
increases the angle of attack of that wing. If it ain't stalled, but is very
close, when the aileron goes down the increase in AOA for that wing will
kick it over the threshold. All the additional aileron in the world after
that will only make matters worse.
