Model Ditching Investigations of Three Airplanes Equipped With Hydro-Skis
"Model investigations were made to determine the ditching characteristics of three typical multiengine airplanes equipped with possible arrangements of hydro-ski ditching gear. The behavior of the models was determined from visual observations, acceleration records, and motion pictures of the landings. Data are presented in tabular form and sequence photographs" (p. 1).

The Effect of Spanwise Aileron Location on the Rolling Effectiveness of Wings With 0 Degree and 45 Degree Sweep at Subsonic, Transonic, and Supersonic Speeds
Report discussing an investigation of the effect of spanwise aileron location on the rolling effectiveness of plain faired ailerons on untapered wing plan forms with designated sweep, airfoil sections, and aspect ratio using rocket-propelled test vehicles. Drag data is also presented for all configurations tested. Spanwise aileron location was found to have little effect on the effectiveness of the aileron on an unswept wing plan form.
