MODIFICATION AND CALIBRATION OF DEFOLIATION EQUIPMENT (C-123 - FIRST MODIFICATION)

Abstract

This report describes work undertaken to modify and calibrate the MC- 1 Defoliant Spray System for use with C-123 aircraft. Data are presented on tests undertaken to determine such things as nozzle placement, and numbers and kinds of nozzles compatible with appropriate pressures for proper nozzle performance. Under all objections of the investigations were the employment of aim ability and effective deposition of a defoliant spray with a minimization of drift. Seven supporting appendices are included.
