Some Measurements of the Buffet Region of a Swept-wing Research Airplane During Flights to Supersonic Mach Numbers

NASA Technical Reports Server (NTRS) · 1953 · 3 pictures

This is a 1953 NASA technical report on buffet measurements taken during flights of a swept-wing research airplane to supersonic Mach numbers, written for aeronautical engineers and researchers. The pictures include a plan-view drawing of the swept-wing aircraft, a photograph of the research airplane numbered 144 on the ground, and a line graph of a coefficient plotted against test points. A designer might take from them the clean technical line of a swept-wing silhouette and the graph-paper plotting style.
