Abstract

Report presenting low-speed testing in the pressure tunnel to determine the aerodynamic characteristics in yaw of a 52 degree sweptback wing with aspect ratio 2.88 and taper ratio 0.625 with NACA 64(sub 1)-112 airfoil sections. Testing included an investigation of the effects on the lateral stability of a fuselage and leading-edge and split flaps. Results regarding the lateral stability parameters of a plain wing, effect of flaps on the lateral stability parameters, effect of scale, and airflow characteristics in the region of a vertical tail are provided.
