just a thought, sailplanes use high aspect ratio,tapered wings,commercial

"Extended wing, slotted airfoil, Hershey bar wings, longer gear legs..."
I'd be interested in discusion of Hershey bar wings. Is the extra area

aft? Has anyone tried washout? How much? Effects on performance?

Please respond to

Do not think the spar will support longer wings. Do the
engineering, Virg
