| 1. | This optimum glide angle is usually 17-20 degrees.
|
| 2. | The best glide angle of the BG 135 is 33 : 1.
|
| 3. | This makes it difficult to achieve an optimum gliding angle without the parafoil deflating.
|
| 4. | The glide angle is 29 : 1.
|
| 5. | He estimated that the MOBA 2C approximately achieved its 1 : 38 design glide angle.
|
| 6. | Dividing one equation by the other shows that the glide angle is given by tan ? = /.
|
| 7. | Speed flying and Speed riding requires different wing sizes because of the different glide angles, and launch techniques.
|
| 8. | Such plots are generally termed polars, and to produce them the glide angle as a function of is required.
|
| 9. | The extra drag reduced the glide angle from 31.4 to 30 and increased the minimum sink rate from to.
|
| 10. | The Spillo achieved the excellent glide angles which Cani had aimed for, though he later thought he had overemphasised this aspect.
