EFFECT*LONGITUDINAL STABILITY, TOUCHDOWN, EVALUATIONAn in- |
|
flight simulation to investigate minimum longitudinal |
|
stability for large delta-wing transports in landing |
|
approach and touchdown (including ground effect) was |
|
conducted using the USAF/Calspan Total In-Flight |
|
Simulator (TIFS) airplane. Aerodynamic, inertial and |
|
control data for this class of airplane were obtained |
|
from a prototype Concorde package supplied by the FAA. |
|
The simulation program involved the examination of 20 |
|
configurations by four evaluation pilots. The |
|
configurations evaluated were based upon a systematic |
|
variation of the longitudinal stability characteristics |
|
for this class of airplane. These variations were |
|
designed to examine the influence of pitch stiffness, |
|
backsideness, pitch damping and nonlinear pitching moment |
|
effects on pilot acceptability of minimum longitudinal |
|
stability for the landing approach task. A total of 61 |
|
evaluations was performed. |
