Limit On Air Speed For Langley Field Experiments
At Langley Field Virginia experiments set a practical air speed limit around 90 miles per hour for conventional racing wings. Tests in the high speed wind tunnel show airflow resistance rises steeply beyond this, making horsepower requirements impractical or impossible. Researchers observed that sharp leading edges and razor-like edges could alter performance, but momentum and efficiency remain constrained by aerodynamics.
