Low-speed handling qualities of advanced transport aircraft; A comparison of ground-based and in-flight simulator experiments

Determination of low-speed longitudinal manoeuvring criteria for transport aircraft with advanced flight control systems

The application of Active Control Technology concepts and in particular the Relaxed Static Stability principle in certain categories of future transport aircraft will lead to the introduction of primary flight control systems incorporating full-time stability augmentation. For this category of transport aircraft adequate handling quality...

Handling quality criteria development for transport aircraft with fly-by-wire primary flight control systems

The introduction of fly-by-wire primary flight control systems in certain categories of future transport aircraft, makes it highly desirable to initiate further studies into handling quality criteria for future guidance in system design and airworthiness certification. The handling quality criteria for such aircraft must be based on parameters...
