Hi again TJFC,
Think outside of the box...
Ordinarily I would, but it is raining quite hard you know.
You would need a faster Vr to get airborne at heavy weight than at light weight because the wing needs to produce more lift to overcome
Sorry to drag this out Yes, I consider that obvious to any pilot and isn't quite the issue I have.
An accelerated stall is not the same as a "Standard" stall.
I suspected this was a mis-understanding due to terminology.

My use of the term "accelerated stall" implies that the wing did stall, that seperation occurs, but at Vs * SQRT(G or difference in weight). Also, that this seperation only occurs at crit alpha. It is also very nasty stall because inevitibly it is effectively power on stall in a prop and hence a tip stall.
