Based on the info gathered from the correspondence it appears that my 320 is in reflex when flaps are fully retracted. This leaves me with an additional question/ observation. To obtain maximum lift during a climb out, flaps should actually be left 7 degrees down instead of being fully retracted. This leaves you with additional items to monitor during a go-around. Has anyone incorporated a circuitry or reliable flap indication that reduces workload during this critical time ? I would be ever so thankful for some inputs on this. 7 degrees is substantial and should increase lift significantly. I am surprised that nothing is mentioned in the POH or flight manual addressing this.
