Abstract
Report presenting an investigation in the high speed tunnel to determine the aerodynamic loading characteristics of a 45 degree sweptback wing of aspect ratio 4, taper ratio 0.6, and an NACA 65A006 airfoil section. The effects of fences and leading-edge notches over a range of Mach numbers and angles of attack were also explored. Results regarding chordwise load distributions and lateral center of pressure are provided.
