NOT ONCE does the author refer to the ARC papers from 1937 through to 1939-48, nor does he have any references concerning British research during the war years, instead concentrating almost exclusively on American aeronautical research - he had no idea of what sort of development the British had put in after 1913: this one is busted.
Why don't you post the ARC standards.

Here is the NACA standards adopted during WWII. The USAAF and USN used these as the basis to define their own standards by 1944.

Until those individual service standards were adopted, they used the NACA's.

Quote:
One impor-tant contribution made by the NACA in this area was its famous technical report, No. 755, "Requirements for Satisfactory Flying Qualities of Airplanes." Representing a decade of work, the NACA introduced to the industry a new set of quantitative measures to characterize the stability, control and handling qualities of an airplane. The military readily adopted the NACA findings and for the first time issued specific design standards to its aircraft manufacturers. It is a classic example of the partnership between the military, air-craft industry and the NACA.

End the speculation and just post the standards during the war for the ARC.

Thanks!!
