Tests reported are flight tests made to establish set of design and efficiency curves which were judged accurate by comparison with related wind tunnel data; propellers used were of adjustable pitch type supplied by Freedman Burnham Engineering Co, and tests were run with blade angles ranging from 8 to 28° at .75 R station.
