Abstract
Report presenting an investigation in the high-speed wind tunnel to determine the aerodynamic characteristics of three triangular wings and a trapezoidal wing through the transonic speed range by use of the bump technique. Data was obtained over a range of Mach and Reynolds numbers. Results regarding the lift, drag, pitching moment, and lift-drag ratio of the various wings are provided.
