Title: The Effects of Horizontal-tail Height and a Partial-span Leading-edge Extension on the Static Longitudinal Stability of a Wing-fuselage-tail Combination Having a Sweptback Wing
Abstract: Memorandum presenting an investigation made to valuate the effects of vertical height of the horizontal tail on the static longitudinal stability of a model with a wing with 35 degrees of sweepback, an aspect ratio of 4.5, a taper ratio of 0.5, and NACA 64A010 sections. The investigation also included the effects of adding a partial-span, leading-edge chord extension to the outer portions of the wing. Results regarding the effect of tail height, wing-wake and local downwash measurements, and effect of a leading-edge extension are provided.
