Preliminary Investigation of the Static Longitudinal and Lateral Stability Characteristics of a 1/20-Scale Model of the Mcdonnell F4H-1 Airplane at Mach Numbers of 1.59, 1.89, and 2.09
A 1956 NASA technical report, a preliminary wind-tunnel study of the static longitudinal and lateral stability of a 1/20-scale model of the McDonnell F4H-1 jet fighter at supersonic Mach numbers. Its pages are engineering drawings, graphs and cyanotype photographs of the model, aimed at aerodynamicists and engineers. A designer might draw from its plain technical plates: grid-ruled charts, clean orthographic line drawings of the swept-wing aircraft, and stark blue-toned photographs of the model against a striped backdrop.
