The purpose of the visit was to discuss high-speed wind tunnel design. Particular attention was paid to methods of obtaining transonic test velocities. Several large transonic and supersonic wind tunnels were visited, and opinions were obtained on a number of questions which have arisen or will arise in connection with the design of the proposed N.A.E. high-speed tunnel.
