A Doppler global velocimeter is employed to study the vortical flow above an F/A-18 at 25 degree angle of attack. The measurements indicate that the flow possessed the same characteristics as the vortical flow above a standard delta wing. Image to image comparisons clearly indicate that the flow striking the vertical stabilizers is not chaotic.
