Performance characteristics; experimental work in measuring landing speed of several monoplanes by new photographic method; tests supplemented by available information regarding biplanes were compared with predictions made in accordance with basic aerodynamic theory; fundamental relation between wing loading, lift coefficient and speed of level flight, and effects of aspect ratio and proximity to ground on lift curve slope.
