Plane-Maker

Is there a comprehensive laymens reference listed anywhere for the meaning of the terms contained in Plane-Maker?

I am trying my hand at tweaking flight parameters, but am blocked by not knowing for sure what things mean or how changes effect performance.

Thank you,

Jerry

I cant say there's one comprehensive reference available Jerry.  Forums have always been the traditional place to get information.  Layman's documention has always been desired and I am aware of several entites who have talked about compiling one...though Im' sure the immensity of the task makes that challenging.  Please feel free to ask away here anything that you need.  There's almost always someone within "minutes" away of being able to help out.

Thanks Tom.

One question that comes to mind: about the flaps.

Flaps are marked as #1 & #2 etc.

Is this 1) inboard & 2) outboard?

OR: 1) left and 2) right wing?

OR: 1) furthest forward & 2) aft of 1 if slotted etc?

I find acf.files with different references.

BTW:>  axiously awaiting the new 9.3b7 acf.file for the MU2.

Thanks,

Jerry
