Hey all,

Haven't been around much, I've wanted to get back into flight sim but I have no time.  I've been working on a research paper for my aerodynamics class, and came across this awesome set of articles about all sorts of technologies developed by NASA Langley. 

I really only read about the area rule and supercritical wings, but overall it's a great read and really well explained.  Some conceptual stuff is left out, I'd suggest consulting wikipedia for some basics if you get lost, but overall, an interesting read!
