The best I could come up with is a co-relation with the standard corrugated boxes. The corrugation gives boxes structural rigidity and end-to-end strength along the "flutes" (go to wikipedia and search for "corrugated box"). This same concept applied to the ailerons would make sense. If you get another answer, please do share with me.</p> Thu, 26 Oct 2006 17:03:33 -0400 http://serendipity.poddu.com/archives/2006/10/26/418.html
