Summary

[edit]
Description
English: This 1949 NACA Muroc Flight Test Unit photograph of the Douglas D-558-1 #3 Skystreak was taken in front of the NACA hangar at South Base, Edwards Air Force. NACA had the color of the Skystreaks changed from red to white for better optical tracking and photograpy. It was found that the dark red aircraft was hard to see against the dark blue sky over Edwards Air Force Base. The NACA Muroc Flight Test Unit went through several names before the organization became the NASA Dryden Flight Research Center in 1976.
