Wing-on and wing-off longitudinal characteristics of an airplane configuration having an thin unswept tapered wing of aspect ratio 3, as obtained from rocket-propelled models at Mach numbers from 0.8 to 1.4
Description:
Report presenting flight tests at Mach numbers from 0.8 to 1.4 on three rocket-propelled general research models of airplane configurations. Two models had thin unswept tapered wings of aspect ratio 3 and hexagonal airfoil sections, two wings had different structural stiffness characteristics, and the third model had no wing. Results regarding the static and dynamic longitudinal stability, control, trim, and drag characteristics are provided.
