Contrary to legend, the Ta 152H did not have a laminar flow wing. I
have Focke Wulf documents showing that the wing used the same NACA
5-digit airfoils as the Fw 190. My "Incomplete Guide to Airfoil Usage"
gives the airfoil designations.


ADD: I have read somewhere the Globe Swift used the same NACA airfoil
as the 190 (or vice versa) - is that so?
Also - from all I have read laminar flow is delightful in theory and
essentially unobtainable/maintainable in practice. Dirt, bugs and
hangar rash all mitigate against it.
