Pretty sensational article.

I've always wondered why major a/c manufacturers like Boeing and 'Bus don't provide raw AOA data to the pilots. Makes life so much easier. Rather than calculate Ref speeds, you just fly X AOA on final. Same time every time. Max Range? Fly Y AOA. Max Endurance, Z AOA. It's how we've been doing it in the Navy for decades. So easy, a caveman can do it.
