Friday saw the start of the teams wind tunnel testing. The day was spent setting the model up and ensuring the function of the test facilities. The team aims to use this testing time to validate the theoretical aerodynamic performance and ensure the suitability of the current planform for the competition design.
A quarter scale wind tunnel model of the main wing planform has been completed and is ready for testing when space opens up at City's T2 low speed wind tunnel.
