24、xtend most aft aircraft limit aft by an amount equal to 50% of the aircraft range, or 20% aft of the static aft tipping point, whichever is further aft.SAE INTERNATIONAL ARP1409C Page 3 of 20_Copyright SAE International Provided by IHS under license with SAENot for ResaleNo reproduction or networkin
