Clark,
Interrrresting!
I have been trying to understand our reflexed/non-reflexed wing more lately. I postulate that one characteristic is that an in-flight excessive rear CG problem could be alleviated by a few degrees of flaps at a few knots loss in speed. Also, In opposition to "normal" airplanes with tailplane icing, perhaps a few degrees of flaps would be beneficial in altering the attitude of the airplane to more nose-down. Did this stuff disappear (sublimate) before landing (ground looks beautiful between the clouds)? If not, did you use flaps on approach?
Yada yada...
