Admiral Puff Posted October 15, 2019 Share Posted October 15, 2019 Can anyone point me towards data to establish what this was, please? I have found https://m-selig.ae.illinois.edu/ads/aircraft.html, which just shows "NACA 63-???" and so is not all that helpful. I'm after something that will tell me which profile was used, and what it looks like. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kev67 Posted October 15, 2019 Share Posted October 15, 2019 Maybe contact Brooklands Museum, as they have a archive of Vickers built aircraft at Weybridge, where the museum is https://www.brooklandsmuseum.com/explore/our-collection/aircraft/viscount 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zephyr Posted April 2, 2023 Share Posted April 2, 2023 Did you ever find the exact airfoil? I'm looking for the airfoils with a view to building a flying model at some point. The Viscount 700 specification manual gives the airfoil as NACA 63 modified with thickness at the root root and tip of 15.5% and 13% respectively. I would guess they used something like the 63A415.5 but it would be nice to know for sure... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
