Interesting graphs included in that document. Thanks. How does this go with what's written in the FCTM though?
CONF FULL provides better handling capability in turbulent conditions, however, CONF 3 provides more energy and less drag.

Wouldn't it seem to be saying that you have better roll control with full flaps?

What exactly does Airbus mean by "handling capability"? To me, the graph and the text are at odds with each other.
