Parasite Drag?
Anyone here seen that picture of the Beech 18 with 13 jumpers outside
hanging on or sitting on top of the fuselage? They started out at 14,500' and when they were all outside, the flight continued for at least a minute and a half while the photos were taken. I was prompted to post this in response to someone talking about lateral weight and balance in fixed wing. Lateral weight and balance is noticeable in helicopters much more obviously. Ol S&B
