Scientific and Technical Information Branch 1978 National Aeronautics and Space Administration Washington, DC This Supplement is available from the National Technical Information Service (NTIS), Springfield. Virginia 22161. at the price code E02 ($475 domestic. $9 50 foreign) INTRODUCTION

Under the terms of an mteragency agreement with the Federal Aviation Administration this publication has been prepared by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration for the joint use of both agencies and the scientific and technical community concerned with the field of aeronautical engineering The first issue of this bibliography was published in September 1970 and the first supplement in January 1971 Since that time, monthly supplements have been issued This supplement to Aeronautical Engineering — A Continuing Bibliography (NASA SP-7037) lists 399 reports, journal articles, and other documents originally announced in June 1978 in Scientific and Technical Aerospace Reports (STAR) or in International Aerospace Abstracts (IAA) The coverage includes documents on the engineering and theoretical aspects of design, construction, evaluation, testing, operation, and performance of (including aircraft engines) and associated components, equipment, and systems It also includes research and development in aerodynamics, aeronautics, and ground support equipment for aeronautical vehicles. Each entry in the bibliography consists of a standard bibliographic citation accompanied in most cases by an abstract The listing of the entries is arranged in two major sections, IAA Entries and STAR Entries, in that order The citations, and abstracts when available, are reproduced exactly as they appeared originally in IAA and STAR, including the original accession numbers from the respective announcement journals This procedure, which saves time and money, accounts for the slight variation in citation appearances Three indexes -- subject, personal author, and contract number -- are included An annual cumulative index will be published.
