Hey check it out......the slots resulted in far superior stall characteristics such that with the CG loaded fully aft, the airfract was spun in a tail heavy load safely!
Wow, that is good information. We I teach spins, the CG must be as far forward as possible for a very good reason.
Normally, a rearward CG spin is extremely dangerous and something to be avoided. To intentionally load the aircraft to its rearward limits and then spin it speaks volumes of the confidence in the slat operation.
Entry into a spin is much easier at any aircraft rearward CG limit but recovery is much more difficult if not impossible because the spin will flatten.
The aircraft showed no tendency to flatten the spin even at a rearward CG.
That pretty much says it all and proves the value of the LE slats.
