Induced drag calculation is discussed. The importance of aspect ratio of the finite wing in terms of induced drag is highlighted. The span efficiency factor and the importance of elliptical wing planform is introduced. The drag polar for a finite wing is introduced and the total drag is presented as the sum of the profile drag and induced drag.
