I have a few questions regarding AOA sensor, if anybody is kind enough to comment...

a. is the position of the sensor(s) arbitrarily selected ?
b. what is the benefit of being near the nose ?
c. as its sole purpose is to relate AOA to stall, is it not more logical to be on top of the wing and/or stab trim ?
d. any other sensor types ever considered and if have been rejected on what basis ?

thanks
