DOWNLOAD EBOOKThis paper presents the results of the investigation of a wing-alone and wing-fuselage configuration employing a wing with the quarter-chord line swept back 45 degrees, with aspect ratio 4, taper ratio 0.3, and an NACA 65A006 airfoil section. Lift, drag, pitching moment, and root bending moment were obtained for these configurations. In addition, effective downwash angles and dynamic-pressure characteristics in the region of a probable tail location were also obtained for these configurations and are presented for a range of tail heights at one tail length. In order to expedite the publishing of these data, only a brief analysis is included.
