The Symposium was organized around three subject areas: (1) correlation of basic wind tunnel techniques, (2) flight test techniques for correlation, and (3) wind tunnel/flight correlation. Papers were presented which treated specific studies designed to compare various two and three dimensional wind tunnel facilities, wind tunnel facilities designed to provide better Reynolds number matches with full scale, and techniques used to contain wall effects, measure dynamic characteristics and study noise. The state of the art with regard to parameter identification was summarized and the proceedings of the AGARD Flight Mechanics Panel Specialists' Meeting were reviewed. Also treated were methods of measuring aerodynamic characteristics, in flight, of wings, rotors, and special aircraft configured for the acquisition of data not normally available from flight tests. Correlation experience for a broad spectrum of aircraft types was reported. It was suggested that good correlation can be obtained if enough attention is given to ground tests. correlation
