The Effects of a Highly Cambered Low-Drag Wing and of Auxiliary Flaps on the High-Speed Aerodynamic Characteristics of a Twin-Engine Pursuit Airplane Model
Results are presented for tests of two wings, an NACA 230-series wing and a highly-cambered NACA 66-series wing on a twin-engine pursuit airplane. Auxiliary control flaps were tested in combinations with each wing. Data showing comparison of high-speed aerodynamic characteristics of the model when equipped with each wing, the effect of the auxiliary control flaps on aerodynamic characteristics, and elevator effectiveness for the model with the 66-series wing are presented. High-speed aerodynamic characteristics of the model were improved with the 66-series wing.

Tests of a 1/17-scale model of the XBDR-1 airplane in the NACA gust tunnel
Report presenting tests in the gust tunnel on a scale model of the XBDR-1 airplane to verify the calculated effective gust factor. Tests were made for three gust shapes, one forward velocity, and one wing loading. The test results and analysis were in good agreement and the results of the analysis indicated that there was an appreciable change in effective gust factor for the center-of-gravity movement considered.
