Abstract

The universal airborne camera capsule was developed to obtain the photographic coverage needed for better flight-test documentation. The capsule design and modifications, type of camera equipment, timing device and electrical system are described. The capsule has been test flown at speeds up to Mach 1 without need for excessive trim adjustments. Pilots' comments have favorable, and photographic coverage obtained has been good.
