... An exception to what? My guess would be your statement that "They (constant chord wings) are not as efficient at high speeds as elliptical or tapered wings, but that is seldom the mission of planes that have constant cord wings". Surprised to see what, where? I'll bet he's referring to stall strips as mentioned in: I've also seen mention of stall strips being installed inboard to try to affect the same thing. Constant cord (Hershey Bar) wings need no twist, or stall strips, as they stall naturally on the inboard section. . . But he is a bit obtuse with his referents. :-) Rich S. |
