Walter:

This discussion on "ThetaPP" led me to another thought concerning all of this test stand work that has been done.

Was anything done to either duplicate, or otherwise allow for, the free-air slipstream velicoty at cruise (aka a wind-tunnel-like arrangement)? Otherwise, wouldn't "ThetaPP" be over-stated for all of the cuise tests?

Or perhaps it doesn't matter with a constant speed prop?

I think I am running out of brain cells on this one.

Kyle
