thanks for all your responses!

@eckhard - the statements as you re-wrote them now give sense to me as well, thanks for correcting them, good job!

@Brian Abraham - so could we say that the more AoA, the more vortex strength (and the more induced drag of course)?

wikipedia HAS to be wrong, I don't think the AIM could be wrong about the "heavy, clean and slow" thing.
