Wind-tunnel investigation of aerodynamic characteristics of a 1/2-scale model of an ejection seat with a rigid-wing recovery system /

A wind-tunnel investigation has been conducted in the Langley full-scale tunnel to determine the static longitudinal and l a t e r a l characteristics of a model of an ejection seat equipped with a rigid-wing recovery system. Several wing and vertical-tail arrangements were tested as well as various configurations of the ejection seat alone, ranging from unfaired to completely faired s e a t s .Includes bibliographical references (p. 9).A wind-tunnel investigation has been conducted in the Langley full-scale tunnel to determine the static longitudinal and l a t e r a l characteristics of a model of an ejection seat equipped with a rigid-wing recovery system.
