A few hundred pounds of down force at the tail translates into maybe thousands of pound of force directed at changing the wing's angle of attack...

No it doesn't.
Utter garbage. You clearly know nothing about even basic physics Gaston.
And as has already pointed out to you several times, 'corner speed' doesn't mean the same thing as best turn speed. As usual, you are ignoring everything that doesn't fit in with your fantasy world, and then assuming that anyone who disagrees is either stupid or actually part of some ludicrous conspiracy to shut you up. We aren't, we just think that discussions on aircraft performance should be based on rational argument, not endlessly-repeated drivel. You don't understand simple physics, you don't seem to know what a 'primary source' is, and you are incapable of interpreting any 'evidence' you do have except in whatever way best suits your gobbledygook:

... upon the wings angle of attack being changed, the wing itself assists further changes because the leading edge is higher and higher, causing more and more upward drag on the wing, but this being prevented from going out of control by the prop's thrust AND other drag forces, all of which does not stop the wing's load from being increased... The wing's leading edge higher position acts in effect as a "power assist" to defeat the thrust force of the propeller, allowing the angrily pulling forward prop to be tilted back ever so slightly, so the pilot is not pulling back on the prop directly with his own muscle because the wing's increasing load is helping him by taking up the load, and in addition he has the 18 foot lever, with pulley assistance, to help initiate the tilt....

Does anyone actually understand this? Since when has drag been considered to act 'upwards'? And since when have fighter aircraft been equipped with a pulley!
ROFL!!!!
