I have several thousand hours in a turbine airliner with an AoA indicator. It never comes into play if you fly the profiles, and they didn't really train us on it's use in abnormal situations. But like I said it's reassuring in icing conditions.

Smart, I wouldn't doubt. In tune with reality maybe not so much.

Please send it, I'm always open to new ideas. But for most of the GA community AoA is a bridge too far, UNLESS the FAA wants to revamp the training syllabi.

BTW, my post was at the same time as yours, I hadn't seen your post and was not replying to it.
