From: Uh... Where was I?
That is the theory I have now, if the following question is answered with a yes:
If a larger AoA change is required to obtain a given CL change in a swept wing airplane than in a straight wing one... Does that mean a greater CD change for the swept wing, too?

But I don't recall any curves for CD in swept wings. I still have to research on the accidents Barit1 mentioned and see what I find.

Thanks
