High-Speed Flight

Sg 7, fr 1

SUMMARY

Review Menu

This lesson has focused on:

The effects of high-speed flight on aircraft

Methods used to overcome effects and permit high-speed

flight

CONCLUSION

Changing the geometry of the airfoil to a low aspect ratio, low

camber, swept back configuration provides not only more speed

but also greater maneuverability. After you get your wings, you

will experience other aircraft with different characteristics and

designs. Understanding the aerodynamics associated with these

different designs will help you adapt to the unique characteristics

of these aircraft.
