Tests of a 1/40-Scale Wing-Hull Model and a 1/10-Scale Float-Strut Model of the Hughes-Kaiser Cargo Airplane in the Two-Dimensional Low-Turbulence Pressure Tunnel

Report presenting aerodynamic and hydrodynamic tests of a 1/10-scale wing-hull model and a 1/10-scale float-strut model of the proposed arrangement of the Hughes-Kaiser cargo airplane. The aerodynamic tests were made primarily to study the drag characteristics of these models as originally designed and to determine how the design could be improved. Results regarding the wing-hull model and float-strut model are provided.
