Extract

By way of introduction to my paper and to place its subject matter in perspective, I would like to refer to a paper by A. Silverleaf, Deputy Director of NPL, Teddington, entitled A Review of Hovercraft Research in Britain (published in the JOURNAL, pp. 1019–1028, December 1968). Mr. Silverleaf presented a comprehensive review of research programmes at national establishments, in industry, and at universities. Although he did not specifically mention the College of Aeronautics by name, Mr. Silverleaf briefly commented on the research programme into external aerodynamics that is being conducted at the College.
