- My copy of Theory Of Wing Sections says the cp of symetrical air foils is 23% to 25% from the nose - An aeronautical engineer I consult with who is race car savy says the cp of a streamliner without

- Important here is the height and the length of the fin - a long and low fin is reducing the effect to a small percentage - but is critical in the (straight) moving direction. In other words - a long

- My understanding of CP is an imaginary pivot point(like that of a weather vane) under a vehicle body such that the air pressure on the front half equals the air pressure on the rear half. I guess we

- The term center of pressure is defined by " the point at which all aerodynamic forces are focused" in other words the Point within an air foil that all forces are applied... The one central focus of
