Abstract
Presents results of the U. S. Air Forces' accelerated transonic flight tests of the XS-1 No. 1 airplane for the Mach number range from 0.70 to 1.25 at altitudes from 30,000 to 49,000 feet. Data are included on horizontal-tail loads and buffeting, longitudinal trim changes, elevator effectiveness and control forces, and lateral trim characteristics.
