Extract

The 969th Lecture to be given before the Society and the 22nd Main Lecture to be held at a Branch Centre, “ Free Flight Techniques for High Speed Aerodynamic Research ” by J. A. Hamilton, M.B.E., B.Sc, A.M.I.Mech.E., A.F.R.Ae.S., and P. A. Hufton, M.Sc, was given under the auspices of the Boscombe Down Branch on 1st December 1955. Air Commodore R. A. Ramsay Rae, O.B.E., President of the Branch welcomed the guests and said how delighted he was to see the President of the Society, Mr. N. E. Rowe and members of the Council and Main Society at the Aeroplane and Armament Experimental Establishment.
