Summary:
War airplanes require not only high speed and the ability to climb rapidly, but also the ability to traverse sharp curves quickly. An attempt is made, in the following note, to give a simple method of calculating horizontal curvilinear flight. A method for determining the area of the aileron and rudder surfaces will also be indicated. This discussion applies primarily to single and two-seater airplanes, although it can be extended to larger airplanes.
