Lowering Stall
Just for discussion, what opinions are there for an individual lowering the
stall speed of an existing wing considering constructability and cost? I remember there was some leading edge profile modification studies done years ago but can't see that as a practical approach for an individual. Thinking about how to add sailplane-type upper surface spoilers, WW2 fighters underwing dive brakes, etc. Dick |
