L lift component of R
perpendicular to V
D drag component of R
perpendicular to V
N normal foce component of R
perpendicular to c
A axial force component of R
parellel to c
The relation between these forces
is:
L=N cos() A sin ()
D= N sin ()+ A cos()

If moments were taken about the COP, the integrated effect of distributed
loads would be zero.
However, as N' decreases xcp increases and as the force approaches zero,
the COP moves to infinity.
For this reason the resultant moment is usually placed at a quarter chord
point, with finite value M'c/4
