Examination of Recent Lateral-Stability-Derivative Data (open access)

Examination of Recent Lateral-Stability-Derivative Data

"In the present paper attention is directed to the aerodynamic parameters, the so-called stability derivatives, that affect the lateral behavior of airplanes and missiles. The discussion is centered on three important quantities, the effective-dihedral derivative, the directional-stability derivative, and the damping-in-roll derivative. These quantities are considered for a large angle-of-attack range at subsonic speeds" (p. 1).

An analysis of the tracking performances of two straight-wing and two swept-wing fighter airplanes with fixed sights in a standardized test maneuver (open access)

An analysis of the tracking performances of two straight-wing and two swept-wing fighter airplanes with fixed sights in a standardized test maneuver

From Introduction: "This report presents the initial study, the tracking performance of typical fighter airplanes with fixed gunsights. The types of airplanes tested afford two comparisons of particular interest: that between typical World War II and currently operational fighters of greatly increased speed and altitude, and that between conventional and irreversabile power-boosted controls with artificial feel, both installed on the same airframe."

Flight Determination of Drag of Normal-Shock Nose Inlets With Various Cowling Profiles at Mach Numbers From 0.9 to 1.5 (open access)

Flight Determination of Drag of Normal-Shock Nose Inlets With Various Cowling Profiles at Mach Numbers From 0.9 to 1.5

Report discussing free-flight tests of normal-shock nose-inlet models with 1-series, parabolic, and conic cowling profiles in order to investigate the external drag characteristics at an angle of attack of 0 degrees. The testing occurred at a variety of Mach numbers, mass-flow ratios, and Reynolds numbers. Information about the effect of afterbody length, basic data, and effect of cowl shape is provided.
