A while back, we were looking for the pressure distribution on an RV6
contained in an article in Sport Aviation. I found the article and scanned
in this picture.

Thanks for scanning this Chuck.  It's great to have it electronically.  I bet I have looked at this picture a hundred times, and I am only now noticing the low pressure on the landing gear fairings.

About that simulation, can anyone supply the corresponding pressure
ranges for the false colors, please?  And at what speed the "plane" was
flying?

Thanks,
