As part of the wing-fuselage interferences investigation in progress in the N.A.C.A. variable-density wind tunnel, a method of eliminating the interference burble associated with critical midwing combinations was investigated. The interference burble of the critical midewing combination was shown to respond to modifications at the nose of the juncture and to be entirely suppressed with little or no adverse effect on the high-speed drag by special leading-edge fillets.
