The aerodynamic characteristics of a model wing having a split flap deflected downward and moved to the rear [PDF]
Tests were made on a model wing with three different sized split trailing-edged flaps, in the NACA 7 by 10 foot wind tunnel. The flaps were formed of the lower rear portion of the wing and were rotated downward about axes at their front edges.

Interim noise correlation for some OTW configurations using external jet-flow deflectors [PDF]
Jet flap interaction acoustic data obtained statically from a model-scale study of STOL-OTW configurations with a conical nozzle mounted above the wing and using various external deflectors to provide jet-flow attachment are correlated. The acoustic data
