Title : X-1E on Lakebed
Caption :
The Bell Aircraft Corporation X-1E is shown here in 1955 on the Rogers Dry Lakebed at Edwards Air Force Base in California. The X-1E was actually the extensively rebuilt X-1-2 (46-063). It had a new thin wing, a stepped canopy, and a low-pressure fuel system. It flew through 1958, bringing the X-1 saga to a close after twelve years of research flying at the NACA High-Speed Flight Station.
