Because of importance of internal losses in slot and ducts, attempt was made to develop satisfactory internal systems, after which wing was tested in Lockheed wind tunnel with suction applied; series of tests made at full scale and high Reynolds numbers in flight applying boundary layer control to envelop that had been employed in low drag airfoil investigation.
