In another embodiment, a spanwise distribution of aircraft angles of attack corresponding to local maximum lift coefficients for an airfoil operated at a design condition is identified, and a leading edge device chord length at each of a plurality of spanwise locations is sized to achieve the distribution of aircraft angles of attack corresponding to local maximum lift coefficients. In yet another embodiment, a leading edge device chord length is tapered in two, at least approximately opposite, spanwise directions.
