dc.description.abstract	The present report develops a theory of thin aerofoils in two dimensional motion and simple integral expressions are obtained for the angle of incidence and moment coefficient at zero lift. A graphical method of integration is developed which can be used to determine the characteristics of any thin aerofoil. The method is applied successfully to three aerofoil sections and results are derived for a tail-plane and elevators.	en_US
