Hi Group,

still interested in tailless aircraft, I'm now looking into induced angle of attack. How do I calculate these angles across the span for a planform that has both taper and sweep?
The simple stuff that I've seen so far seems to be valid for rectangular straight planforms only.

Thanks!

Hans
