(/jtflj + Km0) C dx ; Km0 = — 0.02 radian) of 2.86 the aspect ratio is 5.74. As, however, the shape of the load distribution is not appreciably affected by small changes in aspect ratio the curves of A.P. 970 are applied without correction. Serious error might be introduced by adopting this procedure if the loads in members are expressed in terms of the angle from no-lift instead of the mean KL. This error is caused by the change in the slope of the lift curve for the actual' wing b<-mg different from that for the wing of aspect ratio 2 a 0 upon which the load distribution is based. 1 we position of the spars assumed is shown in Fig. 2 and the calculation oi the flexural lines is carried out as shown in lables 1 and 2, the results being plotted in Fig. 4. It will be noticed that for ease of computation equation 1 is divided through by w giving „ , 2 dz [x r==z + wTxLud* fcfl * 1 dh . Since the Z line is assumed to be straight -3—^ is zero 0 dx2 and the second differential vanishes, "vxtiere possible it is a great advantage to approximate to the Z line by a series of straight lines as suggested by Mr. Home (Ref. 3) and use equation 17 in preference to 1. The correction for the discontinuity due to Mr. Burton where the straight line approximations meet is also given in Ref. 3. The direct shears and bending moments on the spars due to the loading for an untwisted wing follow auto matically in Table 3 and for the added load with twist in Table 4. These have been calculated for the front spar only. The loads due to the untwisted wing at any value of KL are obtained directly by proportion (Fig. 5) and are then added to the constant loads induced by the twist on the wing (Fig. 6). The overall moment calculation proceeds as in Tables 5
