Abstract: Comparisons are presented of predicted values of flow angles and those measured using detectors close to the surface of the forward portion of fuselages of a large-scale, triangular-wing, wind-tunnel model at low speeds and a 35° swept-wing fighter airplane in flight. Effects of flap deflection on the upwash of the triangular-wing model are included.
