New tested method of airfoil selection is conceived to assist in overcoming present hazardous stalling tendencies on highly tapered (3:1 or more) and swept back (15° or more) wings, and to control stall at inception and through progression; method eliminates high drag penalties and other undesirable characteristics that develop with washout and highly cambered wing tips when employing two controlled sections.
