Investigation of variable-camber wings illustrates that with modern efficient aircraft, advantages derived from use of variable camber are greater than they were in older types of machine; variable camber will permit top-speed of 12 m.p.h. greater than that of fixed-wing machine, at same time improving rate of climb, and service and absolute ceiling.
