Quiet Supersonic Technology (QueSST) X-Plane Test
PowerPoint presentation outlining the need for the X-59, some background on the sonic boom problem, a history of the GRC 8x6 supersonic wind tunnel, and installation of the X-59 wind tunnel model in the 8x6. The presentation finishes with the current status of the X-59 program. This will be presented at a local EAA chapter meeting on February 10, 2022 and is the same presentation that had been used last year for Troop 226, and is similar to that used at Oshkosh in 2017, and at an AIAA local chapter meeting in 2019 - with a few minor updates.
