From Summary: "This report presents the aerodynamic measurements made during a Navy investigation conducted in the Langley 8-foot high speed tunnel to determine the actual human tolerance to wind blasts."

Report presenting an investigation in the propeller-research tunnel to develop wing-leading-edge inlets for locations between the inboard and outboard nacelles on each wing of a four-engine airplane. Testing was performed on the basic wing and original inlet as well as NACA-developed inlets for two versions of the airplane.

From Summary: "A knock-limited performance investigation was conducted on blends of triptane and 28-P fuel with a 12-cylinder, V-type, liquid-cooled aircraft engine of 1710-cubic-inch displacement at three compression ratios: 6.65, 7.93, and 9.68. At each compression ratio, the effect of changes in temperature of the inlet air to the auxiliary-stage supercharger and in fuel-air ratio were investigated at engine speeds of 2280 and. 3000 rpm. The results show that knock-limited engine performance, as improved by the use of triptane, allowed operation at both take-off and cruising power at a compression ratio of 9.68."
