Summary

(A-11807): This cut-away drawing shows a sting mount penetrating a model Lockheed P-80 Shooting Star with strain gauges inside the fuselage to measure aerodynamic forces. The two 1- x 3-foot supersonic tunnels at Ames were among the first built without external balances, thus relying solely on strain gauges for force and moment measurements.

Production. Airplane manufacture, general. On North American's "Sunshine" assembly line at Inglewood, California, a B-25 bomber is prepared for painting. Paper is taped to those areas to be painted. This plant produces the battle-tested B-25 ("Billy Mitchell") bomber, used in General Doolittle's raid on Tokyo, and the P-51 ("Mustang") fighter plane, which was first brought into prominence by the British raid on Dieppe
