Gust-Tunnel Investigation of a Delta-Wing Model With the Leading Edge Swept Back 60 Degrees

Description: Report discussing an investigation of a delta-wing model with the leading edge swept back 60 degrees. Testing indicated that the gust load is greater than would be predicted by using a slope of the lift curve determined from steady-flow force tests. An aspect-ratio relation was determined for this type of wing with the selected apex angle, but it does not appear to be applicable to other wings with different apex angles.
