I spoke with 1 of our flight test engineers this morning before I left work. His thoughts were the aircraft cannot fly. He pointed out something we had not looked at. With the aircraft not being able to develop any ground speed there would not be enough airflow over the aircraft control surfaces (Flaps) to be able to get the aircraft up into the air.
Without the airflow over the control surfaces you would not be able to bring the nose up and get it off the ground.
He started to explain about the lack of lift needed but had to get up to the Pre-Flight Brief and did not have time. Maybe I can catch him again tomorrow.
