Part II. Some Aspects of the RAE High-lift Research Programme

Published online by Cambridge University Press:  04 July 2016

RAE, Farnborough

Extract

The object of this paper is to illustrate the high-lift research programme at the RAE. It is not intended to be a complete survey of all aspects of this programme, but rather to highlight areas which will stimulate discussion of the programme. Again, it was not intended to consider only completed research work, but rather to illustrate the problems that are being investigated, and the ways in which solutions to these problems are being sought.
