Book excerpt: A performance analysis is given to determine whether bondary-layer control by suction might reduce the minimum take-off distance of a four- or five-place airplane. Results indicate that boudary-layer control might be effective in improving the take-off characteristics of this type airplane having wing loading of 10 or more pounds per square foot and aspect ratios of 10 or more.
