High-speed Wind-tunnel Tests of a Model Pursuit Airplane and Correlation with Flight-test Results

J. W. Cleary, Lyle J. Gray

Abstract

Report presenting the results of tests on a model of a jet-propelled airplane and a comparison of drag, maximum lift coefficient, and elevator angle required for level flight in the wind tunnel and in flight. Results regarding the aerodynamic characteristics, longitudinal control, wing pressure distribution, and dive-recovery flaps are provided.
