| Robert Guttman, e-mail, 04.11.2015 19:08 this was an experimental parasol winged aircraft designed to measure the aerodynamic forces on wings in flight. Two were built and flown in the early 1930s in the UK. The unusual egg-shaped object mounted on struts above the tail was a camera used to photograph the behavior of the tufts on the upper surface of the wing while in flight. reply |
