NACA-RM-L55E23 REV A
Abstract: INTRODUCTION
The analysis of the downwash behind wings given in references 1 to 3 has provided a good basis from which the horizontal-tail contribution to the static longitudinal stability can be estimated for wing-body ... -
NACA-TN-2412
Abstract: The tail configurations considered in this paper are sketched in figure 1. The orientation of the tail with respect to a body system of coordinate axes used in the analysis is shown in figure 2(a). Figure 2(b) shows a ... -
