Loren G Bright

Abstract

Report presenting testing of free-falling recoverable-model tests at transonic speeds on a model with an aspect-ratio-4 triangular wing and a 45 degree sweptback tail in the extended wing-chord plane. Results regarding the lift, drag, stability, tail effectiveness, and buffet boundary are provided.
