Whigham GW-2 : ウィキペディア英語版 | Whigham GW-2
The Whigham GW-2 is an American high-wing, single-seat, V-tailed, FAI Open Class glider that was designed and constructed by Gene Whigham, a retired flight test engineer for Convair.〔Said, Bob: ''1983 Sailplane Directory, Soaring Magazine'', page 67, Soaring Society of America November 1983. USPS 499-920〕 ==Design and development== The GW-2 was intended as a model that improved upon the performance of the GW-1. To that end it uses a span wing with a much higher aspect ratio of 26:1 and a Wortmann FX 61-184 airfoil. The GW-2 also uses a V-tail.〔〔 The GW-2 is an all-metal design, with doped aircraft fabric covering on the aft part of the wing, behind the spar. The wing mounts spoilers for glide-path control. The landing gear is a fixed monowheel, with a secondary skid.〔〔 The prototype GW-2 was registered as N94291 and first flown in 1964. A second GW-2 was also completed.
