Is flat bottomed wing is more efficient than fully-symmetrical airfoil?(a) True(b) FalseI had been asked this question by my college director while I was bunking the class.The origin of the question is The Symmetric Airfoil topic in section Incompressible Flow over Airfoils of Aerodynamics

Answer» RIGHT answer is (a) True

Explanation: The flat bottomed wing is more EFFICIENT at low SPEEDS than a fully-symmetrical AIRFOIL with an angle of attack LESS, so that the reason most of the flat bottomed, under cambered wing uses less power and drag for the same lift.
