An investigation has been made to obtain the effects of a 20-percent-semispan all-movable wing-tip control (which was deflected -5 to -10 degrees) on the longitudinal stability characteristics of a twisted and cambered 60 degrees sweptback-wing-indented-body configuration equipped with fences at angles of attack which generally varied from 0 to 16 degrees and over the Mach number range of 0.80 to 1.13. The Reynolds number based on the mean aerodynamic chord varied from 2,010,000 to 2,220,000.
