Water-Pressure Distribution on Seaplane Float
This is a 1929 NASA technical report on water-pressure measurements taken on a seaplane float bottom, published for aeronautical engineers and researchers. Its pictures include a pressure-unit assembly with its diaphragm and retainer parts, an aircraft instrument panel, a float-bottom diagram with pressure scale, and a line graph of pressure at points along keel and chine. A designer could draw on the clean engineering diagrams, the tidy hull outline, and the plotted curves for technical infographic layouts.
