Abstract
Memorandum presenting an investigation in the 4- by 4-foot supersonic pressure tunnel at Mach number 2.01 to determine the longitudinal and lateral stability and control characteristics of a 60 degree delta-wing airplane configuration equipped with a trapezoidal canard control and with wing trailing-edge flap controls. The investigation included studies of the flap control with and without canard surface and studies of the canard control alone and with the flap control.
