An experimental investigation of the unsteady lift induced on a wing in the downwash field of an oscillating canard control surface
Report presenting the results of an experimental investigation of the unsteady lift induced on a wing in the downwash field of an oscillating canard control surface. The results indicated that existing theories provide a reliable guide for the estimation of the magnitude of the lift derivatives and centers of pressure at low values of reduced frequency and low angles of attack.

Static Longitudinal and Lateral Stability and Control Characteristics of an Airplane Configuration Having a Wing of Trapezoidal Plan Form With Various Tail Airfoil Sections and Tail Arrangements at a Mach Number of 6.86
Memorandum presenting an investigation carried out in the 11-inch hypersonic tunnel to determine the static longitudinal and lateral stability and control characteristics of an airplane configuration with a trapezoidal wing with a modified hexagonal airfoil section and equipped with various tail airfoil sections and tail arrangements. The tests were made at Mach number 6.86 and Reynolds number 343,000 based on the wing mean aerodynamic chord.

A study of service-imposed maneuvers of four jet fighter airplanes in relation to their handling qualities and calculated dynamic characteristics
Report presenting results from a flight program conducted to obtain information on the airplane response and actual rates and amounts of control motion used by service pilots to perform squadron operational training missions, which are correlated with the airplane handling qualities and calculated maximum dynamic response. Results regarding longitudinal characteristics, rolling characteristics, and sideslip characteristics are provided.

Some aspects of the design of hypersonic boost-glide aircraft
Report discussing factors influencing flight range and aerodynamic heating for hypersonic boost-glide aircraft. The possibility and advantages of flight at very high altitude to reduce aerodynamic heating and encourage the preservation of laminar flow on the surface of the aircraft is explored.

Additional comparisons between computed and measured transonic drag-rise coefficients at zero lift for wing-body-tail configurations
From Introduction: "This report makes further comparisons of the theoretical computing method with available experimental results, showing effects of wing plan-form changes, and the effect of an airfoil-section change on a wing of given plan form."
