A: blue line = chord, green line = camber mean-line, B: leading-edge radius, C: xy coordinates for the profile geometry (chord = x axis; y axis line on that leading edge) The NACA airfoil series is a set of standardized airfoil shapes developed by this agency, which became widely used in the design of aircraft wings.
Motor glider. Type of aircraft. National origin. Italy. Designer. Marino Bagalini. The Bagalini Bagaliante (a portmanteau of "Bagalini" and "Glider") is an Italian high-wing, strut-braced, single-seat, pusher configuration, conventional landing gear motor glider that was designed by Marino Bagalini and made available as plans for amateur ...

The biplane wing employs a NACA 4412 airfoil. [2] [3] [4] The aircraft is towed behind a ski tow boat, lifting off at 35 mph (56 km/h) and climbing to about 200 ft (61 m), depending on the length of the tow rope used. The aircraft does not stall, but enters a nose-high mushing condition with a slow rate of descent. [3] [4]
The airfoil is a NACA laminar flow type of varying section over the span, starting at the wing root as a NACA 64(3)-618, becoming a NACA 64(3)-615 by mid-span and then a NACA 4412 at the tip. The wing is constructed from plywood and fiberglass and is responsible for the Annebula's performance increase from the Cherokee II's 23:1 glide ratio to ...
The Daphne is a two place, side-by-side configuration, strut-braced, high-wing, conventional landing gear equipped homebuilt. The fuselage is constructed of welded chromoly steel tubing, while the wings are made of wood, with one-piece plywood ribs. The entire structure is covered in aircraft fabric covering.
Lockheed started producing the improved L-749A in 1949. It had a strengthened fuselage, further strengthened landing gear and a Plycor floor. This increased its weight by over 4,000 pounds (1,800 kg) and increased the MTOW. Slightly redesigned engine cowlings and new Curtiss Electric propellers were also introduced.
The Model B was the first powered aircraft designed by brothers Howard and Joe Funk, whose previous experience was in homebuilt gliders and sailplanes. The Model B was a strut-braced high-wing monoplane with a conventional tail unit and fixed tailwheel landing gear. The design uses mixed construction with fabric-covered wooden wings and a ...
