Introduction of National Aviation Advisory Committee

The National Aviation Advisory Committee (NACA) is a federal organization established in the United States on March 3rd191May, and is responsible for the implementation, promotion and institutionalization of aviation scientific research.

The pronunciation of NACA is a single letter pronunciation, not an acronym pronunciation. The name NACA is still very common in the fields of automobile and aviation. For example, the inlet of an automobile is called NACA duct, or NACA airfoil and NACA fairing commonly used in aircraft are still used in the new design.
