Abstract
Report presenting an experimental investigation in the transonic blowdown tunnel to determine effects of center-of-gravity location on the transonic flutter characteristics of a 45 degree sweptback-wing plan form of aspect ratio 4.0 and taper ratio 0.6. Solid-construction models with streamwise NACA 65A004 airfoil sections and center-of-gravity locations at three different chords were fluttered at a range of Mach numbers.
