The RAE chart uses CLmax neither airplane can attain in clean configuration by any calculation or measurement, including the RAE's. Read the report you claim I have not!

In fact, the CLmax comes very close to matching full flaps for both aircraft.

So while Crumpp is prepared to say that maths has all the answers compromises, such as leaving out the pilot and reducing the weight of an aircraft is okay - especially if it favours one type in particular over another. "I fixed it and it narrows the gap" but no explanation as to how this was done. Instead we are told to have faith in Crumpp's genius because he knows better than everyone else, as per usual.
