Effects of Varying the Size and Location of Trailing-Edge Flap-Type Controls on the Aerodynamic Characteristics of a Unswept Wing at a Mach Number of 1.9
Report presenting an investigation to determine the effects of flap size and location on an unswept semispan wing in combination with a half-fuselage. The wing had an aspect ratio of 2.5, a taper ratio of 0.625, and 6-percent-thick modified double-wedge airfoil sections. Results regarding wing characteristics and flap characteristics are provided.

Low-speed tests of a model simulating the phenomenon of control-surface buzz
Report presenting low-speed tests of an airfoil model with a freely hinged flap attached to spoilers which passed through slots in the airfoil ahead of the hinge line. Testing indicated that buzz is not caused simply by buffeting of a flap by separated flow. Results regarding the oscillations experienced with the spoiler and flap in several positions are provided.
