That's all folks... If you have remarks/omissions, I'll be glad to add them.


As an aside, here is a list of 900 designations that appear in some reports with letter prefixes and designate inhouse wind-tunnel models. There is no indication that they fit within the same 900+ continuity but I'm adding them here just in case.
  • SA-966I-4: Directional Stability improvement (Model 2707 program).
  • SA-968I-1: Aeroelastic Efiects Model (Model 2707 program).
  • SA-981E-1/2: FAA wind tunnel model of SST configuration.
  • SA-983I-1: Stability & Control improvement Program: B.L. (B-1?) Transition Studies.
  • 996I-4: Cruise L/D Verification Program (B2707-100 Configuration Development).
And here are a handful of seemingly Boeing designations that probably DON'T belong, but anyway... ::)
  • 906: Loop resistance tester.
  • 950: the MRF-24X General Arrangement carries a report number in D950-…
  • 999H: Ka-Band Traveling-Wave Tubes
