Resumo

Reports of noise effects on the rear fuselage structure of large British aircraft indicated that one might expect noise damage in this region on the Vickers Supermarine Type 544 aircraft. It will be seen from Fig. 1 that the jet efflux from each engine passes close to the fuselage side and under the tailplane. The fuselage structure proper is, however, protected from the heat and noise effects at the jet efflux by a fairing which is insulated at all attachments. This fairing, by virtue of its shape, is called the “ pen nib. ”
