Yes.

Next question?

I mean if you're going to pull the Freedom-of-speech card, don't be a hack, come up with something interesting. Fashion Old Glory into a wisecracking puppet and blister the system with a scathing ventriloquism act, or better yet, drape the flag over your head and desecrate it with a large caliber bullet hole."

A summary of XB-70 sonic boom signature data
Maglieri, Domenic J.; Sothcott, Victor E.; Keefer, Thomas N., Jr.
NASA Center for AeroSpace Information (CASI)
NASA-CR-189630; NAS 1.26:189630 , 19920401; Apr 1, 1992
A compilation is provided of measured sonic boom signature data derived
from 39 supersonic flights (43 passes) of the XB-70 airplane over the
Mach number range of 1.11 to 2.92 and an altitude range of 30500 to
70300 ft. These tables represent a convenient hard copy version of
available electronic files which include over 300 digitized sonic boom
signatures with their corresponding spectra. Also included in the
electronic files is information regarding ground track position,
aircraft operating conditions, and surface and upper air weather
observations for each of the 43 supersonic passes. In addition to the
sonic boom signature data, a description is also provided of the XB-70
data base that was placed on electronic files along with a description
of the method used to scan and digitize the analog/oscillograph sonic
boom signature time histories. Such information is intended to enhance
the value and utilization of the electronic files.

Wind-tunnel/flight correlation study of aerodynamic characteristics of
a large flexible supersonic cruise airplane (XB-70-1). 3: A comparison
between characteristics predicted from wind-tunnel measurements and
those measured in flight
Arnaiz, H. H.; Peterson, J. B., Jr.; Daugherty, J. C.
NASA Center for AeroSpace Information (CASI)
NASA-TP-1516; H-1079 , 19800301; Mar 1, 1980
A program was undertaken by NASA to evaluate the accuracy of a method
for predicting the aerodynamic characteristics of large supersonic
cruise airplanes. This program compared predicted and flight-measured
lift, drag, angle of attack, and control surface deflection for the
XB-70-1 airplane for 14 flight conditions with a Mach number range from
0.76 to 2.56. The predictions were derived from the wind-tunnel test
data of a 0.03-scale model of the XB-70-1 airplane fabricated to
represent the aeroelastically deformed shape at a 2.5 Mach number
cruise condition. Corrections for shape variations at the other Mach
numbers were included in the prediction. For most cases, differences
between predicted and measured values were within the accuracy of the
comparison. However, there were significant differences at transonic
Mach numbers. At a Mach number of 1.06 differences were as large as 27
percent in the drag coefficients and 20 deg in the elevator
deflections. A brief analysis indicated that a significant part of the
difference between drag coefficients was due to the incorrect
prediction of the control surface deflection required to trim the
airplane.

Wind-tunnel/flight correlation study of aerodynamic characteristics of
a large flexible supersonic cruise airplane (XB-701) 2: Extrapolation
of wind-tunnel data to full-scale conditions
Peterson, J. B., Jr.; Mann, M. J.; Sorrells, R. B., III; Sawyer, W. C.;
Fuller, D. E.
NASA Center for AeroSpace Information (CASI)
NASA-TP-1515; L-12688 , 19800201; Feb 1, 1980
The results of calculations necessary to extrapolate performance data
on an XB-70-1 wind tunnel model to full scale at Mach numbers from 0.76
to 2.53 are presented. The extrapolation was part of a joint program to
evaluate performance prediction techniques for large flexible
supersonic airplanes similar to a supersonic transport. The
extrapolation procedure included: interpolation of the wind tunnel data
at the specific conditions of the flight test points; determination of
the drag increments to be applied to the wind tunnel data, such as
spillage drag, boundary layer trip drag, and skin friction increments;
and estimates of the drag items not represented on the wind tunnel
model, such as bypass doors, roughness, protuberances, and leakage
drag. In addition, estimates of the effects of flexibility of the
airplane were determined.

Statistical survey of XB-70 airplane responses and control usage with
an illustration of the application to handling qualities criteria
Powers, B. G.
NASA Center for AeroSpace Information (CASI)
NASA-TN-D-6872; H-663 , 19720701; Jul 1, 1972
The magnitude and frequency of occurrence of aircraft responses and
control inputs during 27 flights of the XB-70 airplane were measured.
Exceedance curves are presented for the airplane responses and control
usage. A technique is presented which makes use of these exceedance
curves to establish or verify handling qualities criteria. This
technique can provide a means of incorporating current operational
experience in handling qualities requirements for future aircraft.
