Do you have the conclusions stated in the report and the conditions?

It appears the RAE contradicts the NACA's findings on the effect of flaps on turn performance as well as what is taught in modern curriculum's.

I really don't think that is the case and I bet that agreement is in the details of the report you posted.

I understand your reluctance to share those details in this report. I would be happy to provide you the NACA findings on this subject.

LOL, the RAE even have an EAS on scale on their fan plot.
