Abstract

Report presenting an investigation to determine the effects of increased afterbody length on the hydrodynamic qualities of a model of a flying boat with a hull with a length-beam ratio of 15. Results regarding longitudinal stability, spray characteristics, excess thrust for take-off, landings in waves, and a summary chart are provided.
