Abstract
Report presenting an investigation of the flight characteristics of the Bell X-5 research airplane with sweepback that can be varied from 20 degrees to 59 degrees in flight. Lift and drag data have been obtained for the 59 degree sweep configuration for a range of Mach numbers and from zero to almost maximum lift.
