The MAC AoA is 2.32 degrees, the wing is working at a coefficient of lift of .205. The aeroplane encounters a vertical gust, lets say 50 feet / sec. The wing at MAC now sees an AoA of 11.12, the Cl is .98968 and the wing lift is 13,515 lbs... Roberto: Interesting information. I'm curious as to where you got the data for the ES wing to do your calculations. Would it be possible to provide this information? If you can supply the calculations, I'd be interested in those as well. Thanks, Dan
