Issues:
* The ASK13 stopped working in the git-version (from 2011-04-28), throwing the error "YASim SOLUTION FAILURE: Solution failed to converge after 10000 iterations" at startup. Changing line 46 in ask13.xml from "<stall aoa="30"" to "<stall aoa="12"" (taken from ASK21) makes it work again. Maybe needs work why this happens and what the correct value is.
