Abstract: The complete flow fields past a straight and a swept wing-body combination and their equivalent bodies of revolution at Mach numbers around 1.0 have been observed by means of motion-picture schlieren photography. The results of these observations indicate that the shock growth and positions on the wing-body combinations are closely reproduced in the flow past their respective equivalent bodies.
