Hey all,

I am looking at the NACA 4412, and I see the stall angle (which we all know is mid to high teens AOA) is listed here (http://www.worldofkrauss.com/foils/793) at 6.0?
Can someone please explain to me how I should interpret that number?

The CLmax is 11.0 which makes sense to me (if that's degrees).
