RE: What is cubic wing loading????
Interesting.
Why is the result of the calculation raised to the 1.5th power? I can understand doing that if it's needed to weight a factor, (like, for instance the fourth power law applied to the distance in gravity calculations) but if you do it after all the other calculations have been completed, all it does is create a different range of numbers to use as standards.
I mean, why not multiply by 12756? or divide by 37465? or raise to the 18th power? Providing it's always done, the result will still create a range of numbers that, if you always use the same calculation, will be meaningful when compared with each other.
