This photo of two swept-wing airplanes was taken on the ramp of the NACA High-Speed Flight Station. The Douglas D-558-ll was a research aircraft while the Boeing B-47A Stratojet was a production bomber and very different in size. Both contributed to the studies for swept-back-wing research.October 26, 1954NACA Photo / › 1950s Fleet Description
