Mark,
I did mean same airfoil, just thinner profile out to the tip. Like say 18%
at the root and 14% or thin
me company in China will copy his
design and decided to pull the product off the market. If designers decide to
take such extreme steps because they can't rely on groups like us to support
their products then we might as well forget that our art/science will ever
progress.
Ameet Savant
An 8" inboard move on a 11.5' (= 23/2) wing would mean approximately a 6%
inboard move of the WAF point. Which would mean an increase to (1.06)^2 times
the shear load at the old WAF point and an increase to (1.06)^3 times the
bending moment at the old WAF point.
Hope that helps.

When they pass each other they are at the same
distance from the west coast. Hence they both are
"closest" or "farthest".
That was almost too easy! :o)

The tips are not supported. Look at the gap between
the wing tip and the sandbags on the floor. It is more
visible in the wings farther in the picture.

Bill,
I have used AutoCAD before and always found it clunky
and difficult to use. I recently bought Alibre Design
and have been very happy with it. I really like its
ACIS model (parameteric design). 3D modelling is very
easy. They have a free version called Alibre Xpress.
It retains pretty much al

I did the same test for highway miles for regular,
premium and gashol from the very same pump. My gas
mileage did not change with type of fuel. I was
consistently getting 26-27 mpg.
I guess, I don't have an answer for you on yout VW,
but
Peel ply also absorbs excess resin and hence makes the
layup relativly lighter. I doubt if plastic will do
that for you.

e. I don't know the theory behind it nor
the numbers to justify the fatigue life. But there
must be some logic to it and might be a good start for
someone to investigate such a hinge method.

I think the holes reduce the required structural
strength of the speed brake
structure/assembly/actuation mechanism. Plugging the
holes without a thought to reinforcing the structure
to handle the increased air loads may not be a good
idea.

What would happen if the canopy door is open and a
