Summary

During October 1944, the National Advisory Committee for Aeronautics conducted a series of conferences with the Army, Navy, and representatives of the aircraft industry for the purpose of discussing the flight-test procedures used in measuring the stability and control characteristics of airplanes. The conferences were initiated by the Army Air Forces, Air Technical Service Command, to acquaint the flight organizations of the industry with the flight test methods employed by the NACA and to standardize the techniques insofar as possible as they are employed by the various manufacturers and agencies engaged in determining the flying qualities of airplanes.
