Abstract
The situation of American aeronautics in the year 1929 is examined. In that year manufacturers all over the U.S. were bringing out new aircraft models to capture an assured market. Earlier developments in aviation in the U.S. after World War I are also considered along with the conditions of American aeronautics in the 1930s. Attention is given to the introduction of the Barling NB-3 with its all-metal construction, efforts of NACA to collect and disseminate in a uniform notation aerodynamic characteristics of airfoils from laboratories around the world, and the invention of the variable-density wind tunnel.
