Wind-tunnel experiments showing how aerodynamic characteristics of wing section are altered by slot, are described, and best application of Handley-Page slotted wing for control purposes is explained; with correctly designed and positioned auxiliary airfoil, opening and closing automatically, very good control at beyond stall can be obtained without added complication of control by forward airfoil.
