RE: Span vs area
Great Links, DipStick
The pictures in #2 were absolutely marvelous and I could finally see boundary layer seperation. At the last picture, though, you can see that the boundary layer is still close to the wing, shouldn't the wind still have suffucient lift. And I presume that this stall is different from the one where the airplane is going too slow and it stalls. I have heard that in the stall described, the airplane can stall at any spped. Is this true? And I dpn't know where the pictures are on the second page,(the website got updated) but I found a great airfoil simulator.
