Inside a wind tunnel

ONERA’s S1Ch Wind Tunnel was the biggest until the end of WWII. The tunnel is not used anymore and it was recently saved from destruction and is now classified as an historic building. This wind tunnel was built between 1932 and 1934 and it made possible the testing of a real plane of 12m, with ignited engine and pilot on board. The wind tunnel is 120m in length and 25m high.
