    1) The document discusses scaling models for wind tunnel tests using a scale of 1:10. 2) At 35 mph, the model speed would be 550 mph which is too large for tests. Effects of compressibility are not important at 550 mph. 3) For more realistic tests, the model speed should be less than 1 at 150 mph, corresponding to a prototype speed of 15 mph.
