-2- Hs{Lord Ernest Hives - Chair}/Rn.{Mr Robinson}1/ML.6.11.30.Contd. economical way of getting results during the winter would be by means of a wind tunnel. We think that we have sufficient full scale results to be able to interpret wind channel figures intelligently. Lr.{Mr Ellor} believes that either the N.P.L. or Messrs. Boulton & Paul would obtain the figures for us in their wind tunnels. If this is considered desirable we can continue with out investigations on turbulence and the smaller type of square tube.
