Technical Note No. 79 (Reference 2). Briefly, this method is as follows: The difference between the induced angles of attack for two aspect ratios is Aa= {a,-a,) =^^[(^-(t^] 1^") Where Si and are the total areas of the wings having respective maximum spans 6i and 62, and h and h are Munk's factors… … r-^j.

Equation (10) shows that Aa is positive or nega- dC tive according as the effective aspect ratio is decreased or increased. therefore…
