Chief Characteristics and Advantages of Tailless Airplanes
This is a 1936 NACA technical memorandum, number 794, issued by the National Advisory Committee for Aeronautics and held in the NASA Technical Reports Server, written for aeronautical engineers and researchers on tailless aircraft. Its pictures are line drawings of stability diagrams, plan and side views of a tailless airplane with dimensioned elevon and conduit layouts, and airfoil cross-sections with force arrows. A designer could take from them a clean technical diagram style, with dimension callouts, hatched areas, and labelled vectors.
