NACA-TN-1573
Flight measurements of the flying qualities of five light airplanes
Year: 1948
Abstract: Results are presented of an investigation made to determine measurements of stability, controllability, and stalling characteristics of five light airplanes.
Comparison of the characteristics of these airplanes with the requirements for satisfactory flying qualities loads to the following conclusions:
The five airplanes were stable longitudinally in most of the conditions tested. The degree of stability varied considerably among the five airplanes, but the up-elevator position required to stall with power on was low relative to the maximum deflection of the elevator.
The control surfaces of all the airplanes were satisfactorily effective in producing changes in attitude and angular velocity about their respective axes.
