The point was, we achieved some additional Nz capability with the wing, but less than some of us were expecting My point re the pusher was based on guessing that the FARA requirement might include a fairly respectable maneuver envelope at the 180 kt point, and having a pusher would provide for a lower rotor Ct/sigma at 180, allowing that maneuverability. I should add that I haven't a clue as to the FARA maneuverability requirements.
