As part of Douglas D-558 high speed airplane research project, investigation of motion of jettisonable nose was performed for purpose of determining loads imposed by nose on pilot riding within; model tests; tumbling may be greatly influenced by Reynolds Number; in particular, bodies similar to D-558 noses will tumble at low rotational rate; means by which tumbling can probably be prevented.
