12-Foot Pressure Wind Tunnel

This aerial view of the 12-Foot Pressure Wind Tunnel shows the awning over the circuit and the horizontal vacuum ejector exhaust on the roof of the auxiliary building. The pipe in the right foreground conveyed the tunnel’s compressed air to power the 1- by 3-Foot Supersonic Tunnel No. 2 and the Supersonic Free-Flight Tunnel located in adjacent buildings.
