Petro says airfoil shapes generated wind-tunnel tests quite olden times airfoil shapes generated eye rather arbitrary mathematical formulas gave pretty shapes little relationship aerodynamics eg NACA

report mentions would certainly find intriguing probably different reasons Bernoulli never said flow over upper surface must catch up lower airflow equation does imply myth gets perpetuated time after time simply true fact upper-surface flow gets trailing edge ahead lower-surface flow Petro going have tough time de-myth Bernoullis equation should have much easier time de mything government report indeed exists says government report declares separation trailing edge about equal difference upper lower surface lengths presume means longitudinal separation upper flow getting trailing edge later upper flow would imply equal average velocities over two surfaces According Bernoullis equation lift could generated would extremely small under condition Cmon Please give reference report Robert B Meuser Oakland Cab fomia read interest Myth Terraced Airfoil Jim Petro February 1995 issue still persuaded Jims arguments regarding terraced airfoils intrigued closing statement now have choice projectto de-myth Bernoulli probably never flew model airplane. So lets blame Bernoulli never claimed top-curve airflow must catch up lower airflow Mr Petro wrote done some other guy Lets find out de-myth him Bernoullis experiments dealt primarily hydraulics its doubtful gave much thought airplane wings especially since died 1705about 200 years before much flying being done No blame lies seek apply Bernoullis discoveries dont belong Yes its true pressure decreases velocity increases see carburetor venturis time its also true air pressure top wing less bottom its necessarily true reduced pressure supposedly caused difference air velocity over curved

Bob Underwoods NewComers section illuminating funny close painfully true [The] Haught Corner deserves comment because reemphasizes impact hobby can have youth Because recently introduced friend hobby

subscribed 6 easily conclude no model builders under age 21 last several months have shown young people very nicely deserve some recognition yourselves doing guess will offer two cents Thank As mentioned couple previous letters strongly feel could again take lead would add column present list devoted strictly activities young people hobby would certainly interesting productive other subjects

case Ross Wert Sedona Arizona Terraced Airfoil refer Jim Petros article Myth Terraced Airfoil February 1995 issue article contains some useful information also has some serious errors first paragraph Petro says airfoil shapes generated wind-tunnel tests quite olden times airfoil shapes generated eye rather arbitrary mathematical formulas gave pretty shapes little relationship aerodynamics eg NACA

report mentions would certainly find intriguing probably different reasons Bernoulli never said flow over upper surface must catch up lower airflow equation does imply myth gets perpetuated time after time simply true fact upper-surface flow gets trailing edge ahead lower-surface flow Petro going have tough time de-myth Bernoullis equation should have much easier time de mything government report indeed exists says government report declares separation trailing edge about equal difference upper lower surface lengths presume means longitudinal separation upper flow getting trailing edge later upper flow would imply equal average velocities over two surfaces According Bernoullis equation lift could generated would extremely small under condition Cmon Please give reference report Robert B Meuser Oakland Cab fomia read interest Myth Terraced Airfoil Jim Petro February 1995 issue still persuaded Jims arguments regarding terraced airfoils intrigued closing statement now have choice projectto de-myth Bernoulli probably never flew model airplane. So lets blame Bernoulli never claimed top-curve airflow must catch up lower airflow Mr Petro wrote done some other guy Lets find out de-myth him Bernoullis experiments dealt primarily hydraulics its doubtful gave much thought airplane wings especially since died 1705about 200 years before much flying being done No blame lies seek apply Bernoullis discoveries dont belong Yes its true pressure decreases velocity increases see carburetor venturis time its also true air pressure top wing less bottom its necessarily true reduced pressure supposedly caused difference air velocity over curved

Petro says airfoil shapes generated wind-tunnel tests quite olden times airfoil shapes generated eye rather arbitrary mathematical formulas gave pretty shapes little relationship aerodynamics eg NACA

report mentions would certainly find intriguing probably different reasons Bernoulli never said flow over upper surface must catch up lower airflow equation does imply myth gets perpetuated time after time simply true fact upper-surface flow gets trailing edge ahead lower-surface flow Petro going have tough time de-myth Bernoullis equation should have much easier time de mything government report indeed exists says government report declares separation trailing edge about equal difference upper lower surface lengths presume means longitudinal separation upper flow getting trailing edge later upper flow would imply equal average velocities over two surfaces According Bernoullis equation lift could generated would extremely small under condition Cmon Please give reference report Robert B Meuser Oakland Cab fomia read interest Myth Terraced Airfoil Jim Petro February 1995 issue still persuaded Jims arguments regarding terraced airfoils intrigued closing statement now have choice projectto de-myth Bernoulli probably never flew model airplane. So lets blame Bernoulli never claimed top-curve airflow must catch up lower airflow Mr Petro wrote done some other guy Lets find out de-myth him Bernoullis experiments dealt primarily hydraulics its

Petro says airfoil shapes generated wind-tunnel tests quite olden times airfoil shapes generated eye rather arbitrary mathematical formulas gave pretty shapes little relationship aerodynamics eg NACA

report mentions would certainly find intriguing probably different reasons Bernoulli never said flow over upper surface must catch up lower airflow equation does imply myth gets perpetuated time after time simply true fact upper-surface flow gets trailing edge ahead lower-surface flow Petro going have tough time de-myth Bernoullis equation should have much easier time de mything government report indeed exists says government report declares separation trailing edge about equal difference upper lower surface lengths presume means longitudinal separation upper flow getting trailing edge later upper flow would imply equal average velocities over two surfaces According Bernoullis equation lift could generated would extremely small under condition Cmon Please give reference report Robert B Meuser Oakland Cab fomia read interest Myth Terraced Airfoil Jim Petro February 1995 issue still persuaded Jims arguments regarding terraced airfoils intrigued closing statement now have choice projectto de-myth Bernoulli probably never flew model airplane. So lets blame Bernoulli never claimed top-curve airflow must catch up lower airflow Mr Petro wrote done some other guy Lets find out de-myth him Bernoullis experiments dealt primarily hydraulics its doubtful gave much thought airplane wings especially since died 1705about 200 years before much flying being done No blame lies seek apply Bernoullis discoveries dont belong Yes its true pressure decreases velocity increases see carburetor venturis time its also true air pressure top wing less bottom its necessarily true reduced pressure supposedly caused difference air velocity over curved

time simply true fact upper-surface flow gets trailing edge ahead lower-surface flow Petro going have tough time de-myth Bernoullis equation should have much easier time de mything government report indeed exists says government report declares separation trailing edge about equal difference upper lower surface lengths presume means longitudinal separation upper flow getting trailing edge later

projectto de-myth Bernoulli probably never flew model airplane. So lets blame Bernoulli never claimed top-curve airflow must catch up lower airflow Mr Petro wrote done some other guy Lets find out de-myth him Bernoullis experiments dealt primarily hydraulics its doubtful gave much thought airplane wings especially since died 1705about 200 years before much flying being done No blame lies seek apply Bernoullis discoveries dont belong Yes its true pressure decreases velocity increases see carburetor venturis time its also true air pressure top wing less bottom its necessarily true reduced pressure supposedly caused difference air velocity over curved

Petro says airfoil shapes generated wind-tunnel tests quite olden times airfoil shapes generated eye rather arbitrary mathematical formulas gave pretty shapes little relationship aerodynamics eg NACA

report mentions would certainly find intriguing probably different reasons Bernoulli never said flow over upper surface must catch up lower airflow equation does imply myth gets perpetuated time after time simply true fact upper-surface flow gets trailing edge ahead lower-surface flow Petro going have tough time de-myth Bernoullis equation should have much easier time de mything government report indeed exists says government report declares separation trailing edge about equal difference upper lower surface lengths presume means longitudinal separation upper flow getting trailing edge later upper flow would imply equal average velocities over two surfaces According Bernoullis equation lift could generated would extremely small under condition Cmon Please give reference report Robert B Meuser Oakland Cab fomia read interest Myth Terraced Airfoil Jim Petro February 1995 issue still persuaded Jims arguments regarding terraced airfoils intrigued closing statement now have choice projectto de-myth Bernoulli probably never flew model airplane. So lets blame Bernoulli never claimed top-curve airflow must catch up lower airflow Mr Petro wrote done some other guy Lets find out de-myth him Bernoullis experiments dealt primarily hydraulics its doubtful gave much thought airplane wings especially since died 1705about 200 years before much flying being done No blame lies seek apply Bernoullis discoveries dont belong Yes its true pressure decreases velocity increases see carburetor venturis time its also true air pressure top wing less bottom its necessarily true reduced pressure supposedly caused difference air velocity over curved

Bob Underwoods NewComers section illuminating funny close painfully true [The] Haught Corner deserves comment because reemphasizes impact hobby can have youth Because recently introduced friend hobby

subscribed 6 easily conclude no model builders under age 21 last several months have shown young people very nicely deserve some recognition yourselves doing guess will offer two cents Thank As

case Ross Wert Sedona Arizona Terraced Airfoil refer Jim Petros article Myth Terraced Airfoil February 1995 issue article contains some useful information also has some serious errors first paragraph Petro says airfoil shapes generated wind-tunnel tests quite olden times airfoil shapes generated eye rather arbitrary mathematical formulas gave pretty shapes little relationship aerodynamics eg NACA

Continued page 6 stretching say generated wind-tunnel tests Nowadays can generated computer making extensive wind- tunnel tests unnecessary Now last paragraph What intriguing government airfoil test report mentions would certainly find intriguing probably different reasons Bernoulli never said flow over upper surface must catch up lower airflow equation does imply myth gets perpetuated time after time simply true fact upper-surface flow gets trailing edge ahead lower-surface flow Petro going have tough time de-myth Bernoullis equation should have much easier time de mything government report indeed exists says government report declares separation trailing edge about equal difference upper lower surface lengths presume means longitudinal separation upper flow getting trailing edge later upper flow would imply equal average velocities over two surfaces According Bernoullis equation lift could generated would extremely small under condition Cmon Please give reference report Robert B Meuser Oakland Cab fomia read interest Myth Terraced Airfoil Jim Petro February 1995 issue still persuaded Jims arguments regarding terraced airfoils intrigued closing statement now have choice projectto de-myth Bernoulli probably never flew model airplane. So lets blame Bernoulli never claimed top-curve airflow must catch up lower airflow Mr Petro wrote done some other guy Lets find out de-myth him Bernoullis experiments dealt primarily hydraulics its doubtful gave much thought airplane wings especially since died 1705about 200 years before much flying being done No blame lies seek apply Bernoullis discoveries dont belong Yes its true pressure decreases velocity increases see carburetor venturis time its also true air pressure top wing less bottom its necessarily true reduced pressure supposedly caused difference air velocity over curved

case Ross Wert Sedona Arizona Terraced Airfoil refer Jim Petros article Myth Terraced Airfoil February 1995 issue article contains some useful information also has some serious errors first paragraph Petro says airfoil shapes generated wind-tunnel tests quite olden times airfoil shapes generated eye rather arbitrary mathematical formulas gave pretty shapes little relationship aerodynamics eg NACA

report mentions would certainly find intriguing probably different reasons Bernoulli never said flow over upper surface must catch up lower airflow equation does imply myth gets perpetuated time after time simply true fact upper-surface flow gets trailing edge ahead lower-surface flow Petro going have tough time de-myth Bernoullis equation should have much easier time de mything government report indeed exists says government report declares separation trailing edge about equal difference upper lower surface lengths presume means longitudinal separation upper flow getting trailing edge later upper flow would imply equal average velocities over two surfaces According Bernoullis equation lift could generated would extremely small under condition Cmon Please give reference report Robert B Meuser Oakland Cab fomia read interest Myth Terraced Airfoil Jim Petro February 1995 issue still persuaded Jims arguments regarding terraced airfoils intrigued closing statement now have choice projectto de-myth Bernoulli probably never flew model airplane. So lets blame Bernoulli never claimed top-curve airflow must catch up lower airflow Mr Petro wrote done some other guy Lets find out de-myth him Bernoullis experiments dealt primarily hydraulics its doubtful gave much thought airplane wings especially since died 1705about 200 years before much flying being done No blame lies seek apply Bernoullis discoveries dont belong Yes its true pressure decreases velocity increases see carburetor venturis time its also true air pressure top wing less bottom its necessarily true reduced pressure supposedly caused difference air velocity over curved

Bob Underwoods NewComers section illuminating funny close painfully true [The] Haught Corner deserves comment because reemphasizes impact hobby can have youth Because recently introduced friend hobby

case Ross Wert Sedona Arizona Terraced Airfoil refer Jim Petros article Myth Terraced Airfoil February 1995 issue article contains some useful information also has some serious errors first paragraph Petro says airfoil shapes generated wind-tunnel tests quite olden times airfoil shapes generated eye rather arbitrary mathematical formulas gave pretty shapes little relationship aerodynamics eg NACA

Continued page 6 stretching say generated wind-tunnel tests Nowadays can generated computer making extensive wind- tunnel tests unnecessary Now last paragraph What intriguing government airfoil test report mentions would certainly find intriguing probably different reasons Bernoulli never said flow over upper surface must catch up lower airflow equation does imply myth gets perpetuated time after time simply true fact upper-surface flow gets trailing edge ahead lower-surface flow Petro going have tough time de-myth Bernoullis equation should have much easier time de mything government report indeed exists says government report declares separation trailing edge about equal difference upper lower surface lengths presume means longitudinal separation upper flow getting trailing edge later upper flow would imply equal average velocities over two surfaces According Bernoullis equation lift could generated would extremely small under condition Cmon Please give reference report Robert B Meuser Oakland Cab fomia read interest Myth Terraced Airfoil Jim Petro February 1995 issue still persuaded Jims arguments regarding terraced airfoils intrigued closing statement now have choice projectto de-myth Bernoulli probably never flew model airplane. So lets blame Bernoulli never claimed top-curve airflow must catch up lower airflow Mr Petro wrote done some other guy Lets find out de-myth him Bernoullis experiments dealt primarily hydraulics its doubtful gave much thought airplane wings especially since died 1705about 200 years before much flying being done No blame lies seek apply Bernoullis discoveries dont belong Yes its true pressure decreases velocity increases see carburetor venturis time its also true air pressure top wing less bottom its necessarily true reduced pressure supposedly caused difference air velocity over curved

projectto de-myth Bernoulli probably never flew model airplane. So lets blame Bernoulli never claimed top-curve airflow must catch up lower airflow Mr Petro wrote done some other guy Lets find out de-myth him Bernoullis experiments dealt primarily hydraulics its doubtful gave much thought airplane wings especially since died 1705about 200 years before much flying being done No blame lies seek apply Bernoullis discoveries dont belong Yes its true pressure decreases velocity increases see carburetor venturis time its also true air pressure top wing less bottom its necessarily true reduced pressure supposedly caused difference air velocity over curved
