Wing Sections Without Layouts

Abstract

IN the preliminary stages of the design of a wing it is sometimes necessary to obtain sections before the drawing office or lofting departments have had time to make layouts. The following article is written to show one method by which these sections can be arrived at. Incidentally it may be added that the author has found by experience that a greater degree of accuracy is met with by the use of this method and it provides a useful check against the layouts.
