Abstract
Report presenting a wind-tunnel investigation at low speed to determine the aerodynamic characteristics of a 51.3 degree sweptback semispan wing with a raked tip and with 16.7-percent-chord sealed plain ailerons. Lift, drag, pitching-moment, and hinge-moment data were obtained for the wing with transition free and fixed with various spans of aileron deflected as lift flaps. The rolling moment, yawing moment, hinge moment, and aileron seal pressure characteristics were determined for each of the nine possible aileron-span and trailing-edge-angle combinations tested.
