Wig drag .

B Planing Hull
During the take-off the wetted area of the WIG hull changes The planing hull is a kind of hull that is specifically
drastically ranging from a slender planing hull at initial stage designed for a craft to achieve relatively high speed on the
of run to a planing surface of moderate aspect ratio just before surface of water. A planing hull makes the water to be pushed

from wind-tunnel test results of model flying after take-off.
