Source sentences:
text: The glide ratio (E) is numerically equal to the lift-to-drag ratio under these conditions; but is not necessarily equal during other manoeuvres, especially if speed is not constant.
text: Once again we use the graphic vector analysis technique and show that the glide ratio is numerically equal to the ratio of lift to drag.
text: If lift is fixed and the glide ratio is numerically equal to the lift/drag ratio, we can change the glide ratio only by changing drag.
