NASA-TN-D-30: Flight Investigation of the Lift and Drag Characteristics of a Swept-Wing, Multijet, Transport-Type Airplane
Abstract: The lift and drag characteristics of a Boeing KC-135 airplane were determined during maneuvering flight over the Mach number range from 0.70 to 0.85 for the airplane in the clean configuration at an altitude of 26,000 feet. ...
NASA-TN-D-6142: Vortex-lattice FORTRAN program for estimating subsonic aerodynamic characteristics of complex planforms
Abstract: Vortex-lattice FORTRAN program for estimating subsonic aerodynamic characteristics of complex planforms.
NASA-TN-D-552: Studies of the Retardation Force Developed on an Aircraft Tire Rolling in Slush or Wate
Abstract: A series of unbraked (freely rolling) taxi tests were conducted at the Langley landing-loads track with a 32 x 8.8, type 7, 22-ply-rating ribbed-tread aircraft tire to obtain data on tire retardation forces developed during ...
NASA-TN-D-7137: Modeling of airplane performance from flight-test results and validation with an F-104G airplane
Abstract: A technique of defining an accurate performance model of an airplane from limited flight-test data and predicted aerodynamic and propulsion system characteristics is developed. With the modeling technique, flight-test data ...
NASA-TN-D-7815: Experimental investigation of the cornering characteristics of 18 x 5.5, type 7, aircraft tires with different tread patterns
Abstract: The characteristics, which include the cornering-force and drag-force friction coefficients and self-alining torque, were obtained on dry, damp, and flooded runway surfaces over a range of yaw angles from 0 deg to 12 deg ...
