Loening, Grover Cleveland, 1888- · [Boston, W. S. Best printing company] · leaf 128
hardly necessary to emphasize that, for any inclination,there is only one speed at which horizontal flight is attained with thegiven load. Each angle has its particular corresponding speed. So that in gradually increasing the angle of incidence of the aero-plane from 1° to 12°, the Lift coefficient… … Vol Pique, Xose Down—79.5 m. p. h. Vol Cabre, Tail Down—44.6 m. p. h. SPEED RANGEIt is important to emphasize here that the aeroplane requiringmuch less power to fly at the slower speeds, in order to keep flying hori-zontally at any particular angle of incidence, the power must be…
