dc.description.abstract	This report contains an account of some experiments on the effect of concentrated masses (representing wing engines, etc.) on the flutter characteristics of a model cantilever wing. Flutter critical speeds and frequencies were measured for an extensive range of mass loading and the results are presented in the form of diagrams. The flutter motions for a few representative conditions of mass loading were determined by an analysis of cinematograph pictures. The results of experiments on the influence of the flexibility of an engine mounting are also included.	en_US
