Title: Stalling speeds and determination of manoeuver speed for Rogallo-winged microlight airplanes
Authors: Gratton, GB
Keywords: Rogallo
Microlight
Aeroelasticity
Flexwing
Publication Date: 2008
Publisher: American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics
Citation: Journal of Aircraft 45(2): 723-725, Mar 2008
Abstract: Rogallo-winged airplanes can display a non-square law of stall speed versus loading. This Note shows, from experimental data, the form of this relationship and how this has been used during the certification of such airplanes, through operating data and modification of either maneuver speed or the normal acceleration limits
