Flying Qualities
• The designer is responsible of providing an airplane with optimum performance (safe and easy to fly)
• So, need to know what degree of stability and control is required for the pilot to consider the airplane
safe and flyable
• The flying qualities expected by the pilot depend on the type of aircraft and the flight phase
Pure Pitching Motion (this is what you normally can do in wind tunnel)
Center of gravity is constrained to move in a straight line at constant speed
The aircraft is free to pitch about its center of gravity
