Commuter Wing?

2 posts in this topic

Posted (edited)

Hi! I was wondering what is the difference between SHORT SPEEDWING and COMMUTER wing.

From what i understood, the commuter wing was a short undercambered wing,so my questions (if my supposition is right) are:

-can i made a commuter wing just "cutting" an original STOL wing and relative flaperons?

-what is the average gain in performance on a 582 and the average loss in stall speed and ground run?

-why there are just a few of those wings and is difficult to find info?

-it worth the job or the increase in stall speed and induced drag is more than the speed and roll gain?

Thanks

Fabio.

My understanding is the speed wing and the commuter wing are the same. the cummuter was a doll up tricycle gear version of the speedwing
