First Sink Rate Measurements with only lower-surface leading-dege tapes

[j...@oxaero.com]

I took a set of sink rate measurements last Saturday in which I removed the upper side of the leading edge tapes from the wings.  The original tapes remained in place from just below the nose of the wings downward.  As usual, the results was a mixed bag of surprises and expected things.  For more, go to http://www.deturbulator.org/Progress-01292011-LowerLET1.asp.
