Its 28.00 ft (8.5 m) span wing lacks flaps and has a wing area of 126.0 sq ft (11.71 m 2). The acceptable power range is 85 to 160 hp (63 to 119 kW) and the standard engines used are the 125 hp (93 kW) Continental O-240 or the 125 hp (93 kW) Lycoming O-290 powerplants.
A 3 ft (91 cm) winglet gives the performance gain of a 2 ft (61 cm) span increase but has the bending force of a 1 ft (30 cm) span increase. [31] The Boeing 787 Dreamliner is an example of raked wingtips utilization. Raked wingtips offer several weight-reduction advantages relative to simply extending the conventional main wingspan.

The instrument panel of a Spitfire IX showing the Mk IID Gyro reflector gunsight. To set range the dial adjusts the reticle size to match target wingspan. Currently set to the Junkers Ju 88, it ranged in size from the large Fw 200 Condor to the small Messerschmitt Bf 109.
The SGS 2-33, indicating Schweizer Glider, Sailplane, 2 Seats, Model 33, was designed by Ernest Schweizer.

The 2-33 retained the 2-22 and 1-7's metal wing, single spar and single strut arrangement. [1] [2] [5]
Its forward 20 ft (6.1 m) span wing employs a GU25-5(11)8 mod airfoil, when the aft wing (span 22 ft) uses an Eppler 1212 airfoil. [4] Both wings have a total area of 92.2 sq ft (8.57 m 2 ). Standard engines used include the 60 hp (45 kW) Volkswagen air-cooled engine and the 85 hp (63 kW) Jabiru 2200 four-stroke powerplants.
