Subsonic forced-oscillation tests of a 0.015 scale model of the space shuttle orbiter/747 ferry vehicle were conducted in the Langley high speed 7- by 10-foot tunnel at Mach numbers of 0.2, 0.4, and 0.5 for angles of attack up to 12 deg. Tests were made of the basic 747 airplane, of the modified 747 (tip fins and struts added), of the ferry configuration, (747 plus orbiter at an incidence angle of 3 deg), and of the approach and landing test configuration (747 plus orbiter at an incidence angle of 6 deg).
