Abstract

This report contains a comparison of the results from tests on two configurations of a v/STOL aeroplane model at Mach numbers between 0.6 and 1.2 in +he NLR subsonic transonic pressure wind tunnel at Amsterdam and the NASA 8-foot transonio pressure tunnel at langley Field. The correlation between the results obtained in the two tunnels is quite satisfactory.
