Flight, November 15th, 1947 Progress with Noral Alloys A preview of the high speed, long range pas- senger aircraft of the future can be seen in the Armstrong-Whitworth 52, jet-engined flying wing. Its revolutionary design includes unique features that will allow aircraft with thick section wings to fly at high speeds without the drag caused by turbulence of the boundary layer. The AW-52 is built mainly of Noral alloys — alloys produced by our research and devel $- ment organisation ahead of the needs of the Aircraft Industry so that, whenever new and advanced aircraft are planned, there will be materials to fit the design.
