Because pilots appear to be illiterate. The vast majority cant understand that the topic of this discussion is not how to avoid turbulence or how to operate transport or not transport cat airplanes, or about the stall or slow flight etc.

ITS A THEORETICAL AERODYNAMICS QUESTION!

True or False?
I have to admit, that it is a very complex topic and only few people here will have a good grasp of this matter and majority will just guess (including myself), but I am still hoping that something good will come out of it.
