Report presenting an analysis of the estimated flying qualities of a tailless airplane with the wing quarter-chord line swept back 35 degrees in a range of Mach numbers based on tests of a model of the airplane in the 7- by 10-foot tunnel. Results regarding performance, longitudinal stability and control, and lateral stability and control are provided.

Report presenting the ditching characteristics of the Douglas DC-4 and DC-6 in a water tank. Dynamically similar models of 1/16 scale were used for the investigation, which was conducted in calm and rough water. The ditching characteristics and safest ditching procedures were determined by testing at various landing attitudes, speeds, and simulated conditions of damage.

Memorandum presenting aerodynamic characteristics of the NACA 64-010 and 64A010 airfoil sections as determined from wind-tunnel tests at Mach numbers from 0.3 to 0.9. Comparisons are made which indicate the only significant differences in the characteristics of the two sections to be a consistently greater lift-curve slope and an approximately 10-percent greater maximum section lift coefficient at Mach numbers above 0.7 for the NACA 64-010 airfoil section.

Memorandum presenting wind-tunnel tests of a semispan model of a hypothetical supersonic airplane to determine the static longitudinal stability and control characteristics of the airplane throughout the range of subsonic Mach numbers up to 0.95. The model had a long slender fuselage and a wing and horizontal tail of aspect ratio 4 and taper ratio 0.5. Results regarding the force and moment characteristics, wing wake and effective downwash at the horizontal tail, effects of compressibility, and longitudinal characterisitcs with the flaps deflected are provided.

"Investigations in the Langley 20-foot free-spinning tunnel of models of five jettisonable nose sections have shown that the airplane nose sections are inherently unstable but can be stabilized by the addition of suitable fins. An empirical criterion has been developed which indicates the fin area required for stabilizing an airplane jettisonable nose section" (p. 1).

Report discussing three fuels conforming to AN-F-58 specification were investigated in order to determine the influence of boiling temperatures and aromatic content on altitude performance in single combustor of a 4600-pound-thrust turbojet engine.

Report presenting an investigation of the pressure distribution over a wing with the leading-edge swept back 47.5 degrees and with symmetrical circular-arc airfoil sections in the full-scale tunnel at a designated Mach and Reynolds number. The investigation included measurements of the surface static pressures along the chord for six spanwise stations, for a large angle-of-attack range, and for several angles of yaw.

From Introduction: "An analysis of eddy currents in a compressor blade, the geometry of which has been limited to that of a flat plate for simplicity, is presented."

Report presenting an investigation of the characteristics of a low-aspect-ratio wing at high subsonic Mach numbers in the high-speed tunnel. The wing model had an NACA 65-108 airfoil section, an aspect ratio of 4.01, a taper ratio of 0.498, and no twist or dihedral. Results regarding normal-force characteristics, pitching-moment characteristics, and drag characteristics are provided.

Report presenting an investigation to determine the damping-in-roll characteristics of a 42.7 degree sweptback wing using a linearly twisted wing to represent a rolling wing. Results regarding the effect of the airfoil contour, damping-in-roll coefficient, wing-tip helix angle, and theoretical results are provided.

From Summary: "An analysis is presented of the effect of torsional flexibility on the rolling characteristics at supersonic speeds of tapered unswept wings with partial-span constant-percent-chord ailerons extending inboard from the wing tip. The geometric variables considered are aspect ratio, taper ratio, aileron span, and aileron chord. The shape of the wing-torsional-stiffness curve is assumed and the twisting moment is considered to result solely from the pressure distribution caused by aileron deflection, so that the necessity of using a successive-approximation method is avoided."
