Flight research conducted on natural laminar flow (NLF) is discussed. Emphasis is on recent flight testing conducted by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration. To place these flight experiences in perspective, important flight tests from the early days of natural laminar flow research are first reviewed to recall the lessons learned at that time. Then, based on more recent flight experiences and analyses with state-of-the-art boundary layer stability theory, speculation is made on the possibility of extensive NLF on swept wing transport aircraft.
