Note presenting flight test measurements of the angular and linear motions of a large swept-wing airplane in rough air for a range of altitudes. The measurements are summarized in the form of power spectra, root-mean-square values, and probability distributions. A procedure is given for extrapolating the measurements of the probability distributions and the power spectra to other turbulence conditions.

National Advisory Committee for Aeronautics Collection
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.
