A previous report, NACA TN 3007, gave force and moment data for the NACA 64A010 airfoil section equipped alternately with a flap and a slat at the leading edge, and with a split flap and a double-slotted flap at the trailing edge. The present report presents the chordwise distributions of pressure measured concurrently with the force and moment data of NACA 3007. The pressure data for the leading-edge flap and slat have been converted into coefficients of normal force, chord force, and moment based on the geometry of the leading-edge device.

Flight measurements of some longitudinal static stability characteristics with an overlapped-type tandem-rotor helicopter at low airspeeds are presented. The data show that a critical amount of longitudinal control is required to maintain trimmed flight at certain combinations of airspeed and rate of descent. Estimates based on theoretically predicted interference effects indicate that the front rotor downwash acting on the rear rotor could cause variation of the longitudinal moments of the same order of magnitude as the measured variation.

The model was tested at two different elevations with the wing pivot at 1.008 and 2.425 propeller diameters above the ground. The slipstream of the propellers was deflected by tilting the wing and propellers, by deflections of large-chord trailing-edge flaps, and by combinations of flap deflection and wing tilt. Tests were conducted over a range of propeller disk loadings from 7.41 to 29.70 pounds per square foot. Force data for the complete model and pressure distributions for the wing and flaps behind one propeller were recorded and are presented in tabular form without analysis.
