This book was released on 1945 with total page 14 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Summary: In order to determine the validity of sideslip data obtained in flight by the continuous-record method, sideslip data obtained from a fighter airplane in slowly increasing sideslips have been compared with sideslip data obtained from the same airplane in sideslips in which all the flight conditions were stabilized. The results of the comparison showed no essential difference in the sideslip characteristics obtained by the two flight techniques even though the continuous sideslips were purposely executed with a yawing velocity about double the usual rate of 1° per second in order to accentuate the effects of the small yawing and rolling velocities inherent in the method. Approximate theoretical calculations confirmed the experimental results but indicated that rates of yawing or rolling lower than 1° per second are desirable if the continuous-sideslip technique is employed in testing airplanes much larger than current fighters. The method of measuring sideslip characteristics under steady conditions is preferred to the method of measuring sideslip characteristics in slowly increasing sideslips when the airplane is directionally unstable, when is has a large pitching moment due to sideslip, or when a poor relationship exists among the rudder, aileron, and elevator control forces in sideslips.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Flight Testing, Volume II: Stability and Control focuses on the development of adequate flight test techniques for the appraisal of stability and control characteristics and flying qualities of airplanes. This book discusses the flying quality requirements, longitudinal motions, and flight determination of stick-fixed neutral points. The determination of aerodynamic parameters from steady maneuvering, desirable control characteristics in steady flight, and various forms of lateral control surfaces are also elaborated. This publication likewise covers the measurement of maximum lift coefficient, emergency anti-spin devices, and concept of the altitude-Mach number flight envelope. This volume is recommended for design, development or research engineers, test pilots, and instrumentation personnel interested in airplane stability and control.
