"Report discusses the results of inverted-spin tests in 44 airplane models in the NACA free-spinning tunnel. Spins were normally steep and recovery by rudder reversal was generally rapid. Pulling the stick back, deflecting ailerons and rudder together, and crossing them all had an effect on the amount of spin encountered and ease of recovery from spin" (p. 1).

The National Advisory Committee for Aeronautics (NACA) was a U.S. federal agency founded on March 3, 1915 to undertake, promote, and institutionalize aeronautical research. On October 1, 1958 the agency was dissolved, and its assets and personnel transferred to the newly created National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA).
The Technical Report Archive & Image Library (TRAIL) identifies, acquires, catalogs, digitizes and provides unrestricted access to U.S. government agency technical reports. The mission of TRAIL is to ensure preservation, discoverability, and persistent open access to government technical publications regardless of form or format.
