Title: Wind-tunnel Tests of the Static Longitudinal Characteristics at Low Speed of a Swept-wing Airplane with Slotted Flaps, Area-suction Flaps, and Wing Leading-edge Devices
Abstract: Report presenting a low-speed wind-tunnel investigation of a high-wing airplane with an aspect ratio of 6.75 and 36 degrees of sweepback on the quarter-chord line in order to determine the lift increments obtainable with area-suction flaps. Comparisons were made to the slotted flaps normally used. Results regarding the flap lift, maximum lift and stability, and boundary-layer control requirements are provided.
