    Lift Curve Slope

    I'm designing, building, a strange low/slow single place fun cow pasture airplane of dubious proportions with dubious design skills. It is a wire braced triplane similar in configuration to the old Sopwith tripe of WWI. An old NACA report by Munk has the Cl and Cd plots for a specific Gap/Chord...

    max aft cg

    I'm near complete on the design of a small triplane of WWI type configuration. Researched old naca poop, etc.etc...figure the moments at various speeds, developed tail loads... But I'm unclear in determining a maximum aft CG position for stall or near static conditions with stall/spin recovery...
