OK, just looking at the published performances (Bert Berry's pamphlets, TCFG's):
if (c) is true, how come it works for certain models and not others?
the straight 560 for ex. has a shorter 50' take off (950') and landing (860') capabilities
than the 560E Take off (1425') & landing (1500') or even comparing
with the 560A (same fuselage lengh) which needs 1240' (Take off) & 1340' (landing)?
so in this case, the 560A with shorter wings has shorter landing than its extended
counter part (same applies for take off)
however, the 680E did gain on shorter take off (1525' vs 1540 on the 680) but exactly
same landing for both: 1625'
as of the effect on speed: the 680 has a max speed of 230 mph instead of 225 for
the 680E, so there it seems the extended wing has a detrimental effect on speed.
[quote="drwer2"]Now,thats interesting. The effect of increasing the "washout" is
to (a). move the center of lift inboard, (b.) decrease overall lift and (c)
improve slow speed handling and stall characteristics.These are subtle changes.
This change would not have a major effect onMTOW but would place the stress
where the wing was stronger.
I'd give anything to see any production drawings.
Thanks again Barry for being our Nexus.
