I suggest either to rename the article "drooped leading edge", or a redirection
Some article text was copyed from this book ;
"Leading edge cuffs are a ...device to modify the airfoil used. This (drooped leading edge) has effect of causing the airflow to attach better to the upper surface of the wing at higher Aoa, thus lowering stall speed. A secondary benefit is to produce a more gentle stall onset, particularly when the original airfoil had a sharp leading edge shape."
"...a more gradual and gentler stall onset, particularly where the original airfoil had a sharp leading edge shape. [1]

Please stop adding forums as refs as this contravenes WP:SPS. Despite claims in the forums, you have no confirmation who these anonymous forum posters are, which is why we have a policy against using these sorts of refs. if this information is important and valid it will have been published in a real WP:RS somewhere. - Ahunt ( talk) 12:33, 29 April 2013 (UTC)
According to K. C. Khurana book extract in the article :
"In the case of the modification of the AA-1 Yankee to the AA-1A Trainer the loss of cruise speed amounted to 8 knots or 7%, which is not uncommon."
"Where a factory modifies an existing design by the addition of a leading edge cuff it is often due to an identified problem or deficiency in the original airfoil used. One example of this is the American Aviation AA-1 Yankee, which was modified with the addition of an outboard leading edge cuff to become the AA-1A Trainer. This was a result of flying schools operating the Yankee demanding a lower approach speed and gentler stall characteristics from the manufacturer.[21][22][23]"
