Having flown a number of C-1 or 2XX over the years, believe me, a Wren is a whole different level of "STOL" .Sorry, JT, but I think, in my MNSHO that STOL could long since be regarded as a generic term, certainly based on old brochures for civil aircraft out in the back shed.
At one stage (thanks to Bloggsie) I thought we were going to have a whole new round of "Attitude controls airspeed, power controls rate of climb or descent" versus "attitude controls flightpath (or aim point), power controls speed" but that one seems to have died.
