Report presenting a flight investigation of four air-to-air missiles mounted by pylons on a rocket-powered basic wingless buffet-research vehicle to determine the trim, buffet, and drag characteristics of the combination.

"A two-dimensional investigation utilizing pressure-distribution measurements and schileren photographs has been made of the flow and force characteristics of slab-sided airfoils of 2-percent thickness at transonic Mach numbers. The airfoils had various combinations of elliptically shaped leading and trailing edges from a fineness ratio of 0 to 10. The aerodynamic characteristics and an analysis of the flow past the models are presented" (p. 1).

Report presenting some accompanying tables and bibliography for experimental aerodynamic studies in the field of wing controls during the period between January 1946 and February 1955. The tables are grouped according to the following major classifications: trailing-edge flap controls, leading-edge flap controls, and spoiler controls.
