A model of C class airship hull, when severed at its major section and provided with cylindric midbody of variable length, had its air resistance increased about in proportion to length of mid-body up to 3 diameters, and in about manner to be expected from increase of skin friction on this variable length. For greater length drag increased less and less rapidly.
