Okay, always goes faster second time.
Riblett talks about his mean line have 0,3% nose drop on the CL 0,2 mean line, so I used that, and it is half of the first one.
Very interesting result.

Yes a range of aloud ables.
as I understand it, if the in case of elevator the air load will give a stick load of 200 use 167, if it is 120, use 120, if it is 90 use 100.?
