The more lift you have pr amount of drag the better, and the less your energy loss is going to be in maneuvers, and the higher the AR the higher the L/D ratio. Higher AR wings also have the advantage of producing a higher amount of lift pr. area in the first place - forgetting about the L/D ratio. L/D ratio at an AR of 4: L/D ratio at an AR of 9: As you can see the wing with an AR of 9 has over twice as high a L/Dmax and optimum CL. | |

| OK, my bad. I got this as a 1/72 model (still untouched) and by some reason, I thought it's a Ta 152. So it's a D-9, right.

| This is Ta 152H-1 W.Nr 150167 equipped with the Junkers VS9 wooden propeller of 3.6 m in diameter.This shot was taken in a hangar at Straubing airfield in May 1945.The pics of the same a/c have been posted by Wildcat (the first one) and me (the last two ones) on the previous page.
