thats all good info. Thanks

Can someone tell me what the different flight characteristics are between the 170 rag wing and the 170A. I know the rag wing has smaller flaps but they shure are long. Whant about payload, cuise speed. etc. And what about VG's on a rag wing?

Can anyone tell me how much difference there is in the performance between the 170A and the 170B.
