subsexy Posted March 7, 2006 Posted March 7, 2006 Hi all. New here. Not a builder. I Need to know which airfoil does the beech starship uses. I've been looking around the net but cannot find any info except that it was a natural laminar flow airfoil. Can anyone help me please? Thanks in advance. Atu (Subsexy) Quote

The best you're going to get is from: http://agert.homelinux.org/~fredrik/flyg/aircraft.html which indicates that both the canard and main wing airfoils were custom Roncz designs - a Roncz 1085 on the canard, and Roncz 1107 on the main wing.

subsexy Posted March 7, 2006 Author Posted March 7, 2006 Thanks. Do you know where can I get the performance data of those airfoils? Quote
Marc Zeitlin Posted March 7, 2006 Posted March 7, 2006 Thanks. Do you know where can I get the performance data of those airfoils?Nope. Not unless John Roncz kept the data (or Beech did). If the UIUC database doesn't have them, you'd have to go to the source. Quote Marc J. Zeitlin Burnside Aerospace marc_zeitlin@alum.mit.edu www.cozybuilders.org copyright © 2024
