Abstract

Report presenting tests in the two-dimensional low-turbulence pressure tunnel of a model of the NACA 66,2-116, a = 0.6 airfoil section representing the root section of the wing for the XP-63 airplane. The model was of 24-inch chord, built of wood with dural slot cover plates for the flap.
