WASHJNXITON (Pi Safer ami

A full-sized airplane eotild be
plaeed In (lie new wiiul tunnel to
provide a detailed study of forces
aetliiR upon llu' plane in full flight
without laktiiK it off the Ki'otind.
Wind tunnels have played ;in hn
portant part In the development of
wafer airplanes, but heretofore' toy
like. mode 1m have been lined for tho
tests.

However, they are not willing to
Hem! pilots and planes into the air
to test some new and radically tin-
less they nre certain that the risk i
conventional device unless they
i,re. certain that the risk to pilot
und plane is not too great.
"At present the safe flight of an
airplane Is dependent too much
upon the ability of the pilot." i"r.
Joseph S. Ames, chairman of ihe
National Advisory Committee, for
Aeronautics, told a subcommittee I
of the house appropriations coin
mil tee. "The problems, of bettor
stability and control must be
solved. A large majority of fatal
accidents, are the result of air
planes nearlng a stalling speed,
where the present types of control
are ineffective We cannot expect
to study these , violent manuviM
while In actual flight, where the
dangers are very great, and error
is apt to creep in if we work out
our problem vitl models. We
must have a wind tunnel labora
tory in which an airplane with fo
foot wing span can be tested as if
in actual flight."
In commenting upon the success
of the I'O foot propeller research
tunnel nuw in operation Dr. Ames
told the committer thai the sav
ings made possible in one year to
users and . manufacturers of air
planes through the. development in
tho tunnel of a new cow ling for
air-cooled engines would be suf
ficient to pay for the present tun- i
nel. The propeller research tun
nel was built two years ago at a
cost of SltiO.OOO.
The 'proposed tunnel, which is
paralleled in i ts size and im
portance only by a. similar project
considered for several years in
Italy-, would cost approximately
laoo.000 when completed. The
present appropriation reuuest fs
for 525,0110 1o begin construction
of the tunnel.
In comparison with the present
laboratory at J-angley field, the
new giant of them all would be
approximately four times as large.
Instead of an air stream L'o feet in
diameter, the new tunnel would
have an elliptical throat "0 feet
long and 25 feet high. It would
be 312 feet long and 2MJ feet high.
The air would be pulled through
the chamber at speeds up to loo
miles an hour.
