Abstract

Report presenting results from a series of flight tests of the performance and cooling characteristics in high-speed level flight and in climb of the XP-42 airplane equipped with a short-nose low-inlet-velocity cowling and an axial-flow fan mounted on the spinner. Results regarding maximum speed and pressures and temperatures are provided.
