note on page 688 5 5 The criteria taken for fin efficiency at a given angle of yaw are :—

(Lateral force on hull and fins—Lateral force on hull alone)/ρV2 Atλ and

(Moment on hull and fins–Moment on hull alone)/ρV2 Atλ

At=Area of fins and flaps

λ=Distance of centre of area of fins from the C.B.

note on page 689 6 The scale of the models used in such experiments was:—

For R.33, 1/161.

For R.101, 1/217.26
