GEOMETRIC WINGSPAN (b) is the distance between tip to tip of the wing, measured perpendicular to the airplane or wing centerline, regardless of the geometric shape of the wing.
–
WING AREA (S) is the projection of the plan form on a plane of reference which is usually the chord plane. WING ASPECT RATIO (A) may be defined as:
/

CIRCULATION, DOWNWASH, LIFT AND INDUCED DRAG
–
Induced Drag part of the drag caused by lift
–
Downwash velocity the air velocity deflected perpendicular to the direction of motion of an airfoil, i.e. it is the bending down of the air column c olumn upon which the wing acts while in flight.
–
Angle of attack the acute angle between a reference line in a body and the line of the relative wind direction projected on a plane containing the reference line and parallel to the plane of symmetry.
–
Geometric Angle of Attack simply reffered to as the angle of attack, has been defined as the angle between the relative wind & wing cord Effective angle of attack - the angle of attack at which an airfoil produces a given lift coefficient in a two dimensional flow.
–
–
Induced Angle of Attack the difference between the actual angle of attack & the angle of attack for infinite aspect ratio of an airfoil for the same lift coefficient.
Absolute angle of attack the angle of attack of an airfoil, measured from the attitude of zero lift.
–
Critical Angle of attack the angle of attack at which the flow about an airfoil changes abruptly as shown by corresponding abrupt changes in the lift & drag.
–
Relative Wind the direction from which the air comes in meeting the wing, this direction being the direction of the airstream before it has been disturbed by the approaching wing. wing.

Eqns 1 and 2 are valid for wings with elliptical loading (i.e., uniform. This condition can be achieved by using an elliptical planform. Note:
–
-For elliptical planform downwash is constant along the span -both the downwash and the induced angle of attack go to zero as the wing span becomes infinite.

CLIMB PERFORMANCE AND SPEED From the plotted graphs of the power required and available at given altitudes, various performance parameters can be obtained: Maximum flight speed Maximum rate of climb Maximum climb angle All corresponding speeds
maximum climb angle is not less than the stall speed. To find the condition for maximum (R.C. / v) drawn a straight line from the origin tangent to the curve.
ACTIVITY NO. 9
Climb Performance and Speed Problem: For the aircraft described in activity nos. 7 and 8, determine the maximum speed, the maximum R.C., the speed for maximum R.C., the best climb angle and the corresponding flight speed.
The maximum speed in level flight at a given altitude is simply the speed at which the power available and power required curves intersect. The maximum rate of climb occurs when the excess power is maximum. The maximum climb angle occurs when the ratio (R.C. /V) is at maximum

Fig 10.3 Geometry for Take-Off performance Analysis For analytical purposes, the take-off consists of ground run rotation, transition, and climb over a 50ft (35ft) obstacle. The total take-9off distance is therefore the sum of the ground distance (S G), Transition distance (STR) and climb distance (SCL).

Flight Path Geometry for Landing Analysis
In most repects the calculation of landing performance is similar to the take-off calculation, varying only in the treatment of the approach and flare and in the consideration of auxiliary stopping devices such as speed brakes. The term “approach” applies on ly to the air distance consists of two parts.
1. A steady-state glide path where the airplane is in the final landing configuration prior to touchdown, and 2. The flare. After touchdown, there is a short ground run (approximately 2 seconds) during which no brakes are applied. The remaining ground run is with full brakes to bring the aircraft to a complete stop, Fig. 10.18, shows the schematic used for the following analysis.
