There was no merit to the idea.

That must be why so many light aircraft are built that way today.

I'd like to see then numbers on that wager.

@joshuarebennack68 This is makes me chuckle. You are defending an old design idea for which there has been no demand because it is simply not an improvement. I don't know what a facetmobile is, so I am talking about the wing that is the subject of this video. There is a reason we don't see airplanes with this wing, and it has nothing to do with resistance to new ideas.

@JFrazer4303 Yes, people are stupid, and there is a sucker born every nanosecond on the internet. You don't even understand what my "theory" is, so I'll state it more clearly for you: there has obviously been no demand for this wing design in any application, to include low speed aircraft.

@joshuarebennack68 I don't believe for a minute that this is a useful STOL configuration. I don't need to waste time trying to explain the reasons to you, because the empirical reality is that if it was useful it would be in use. People should not believe everything they see on the internet..

@JFrazer4303 I have already given one basis but you must have missed it: If it really was an improvement it would be in use today. As to some of the specific performance claims you mention, you are a fool to believe such fantasies.

@JFrazer4303 LOL. That not a red herring, that goes to the heart of the issue. By your definition you are a fool, blindly accepting false claims for performance and utility. If you knew anything about airplanes you would know this thing is just another circus sideshow. Have a nice day. Maybe think about where you get your 'information'. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5D86_ptqd8I
