| Description | Report presenting a flight investigation to improve the lateral control of a high-speed fighter airplane. Testing occurred with the original ailerons and a set of modified ailerons, which consisted of an increased balance chord and increased nose radius. The modified ailerons appear to offer a solution to the problem of aileron overbalance and oscillation in high-speed dives. |
