This report contains the results obtained with a propeller in a three-blade and two-blade configuration in climb and high-speed flight when mounted on a slender-nose fighter airplane. An extensive series of power loadings were investigated up to an airplane Mach number of 0.7. The results are explained by theory. Recommendations for propeller efficiency improvement are stated.
