Low-speed wind-tunnel investigation of the longitudinal stability characteristics of a model equipped with a variable-sweep wing

Report presenting an investigation to determine the longitudinal stability characteristics of a complete model equipped with a variable-sweep wing at four different angles of sweepback. The primary objective was to study various wing modifications and an external-flap arrangement designed to minimize the shift in neutral point accompanying the change in sweep angle.
