4.5.4.2 Inter thermal cruise
To optimise the glide performance, it is important to select the proper flap
according to the weight and cruise speed. The flaps modify the camber
of the airfoil, maintaining laminar flow over a wide range of lift
coefficients. For every speed and weight combination there is an
optimum flap setting for maximising the glide angle.
The following table gives the optimum flap setting as a function of speed
and weight.
