This report presents the results of Phase II performance and stability tests of the North American YF-100A air superiority fighter. The test results indicate the aircraft is superior in performance to any production fighter in the USAF. The most serious defects of the aircraft are the inadequate visibility over the nose during takeoff and landing, the poor low-speed handling characteristics, and the negative to neutral static longitudinal stability experienced in level flight from approximately .8 Mach to maximum level flight speed.
