About this book
NASA Technical Reports Server (NTRS) 19930082538: Testing airplanes in flight: determining position of resultant of action of air and longitudinal stability of an airplane at different angles of attack
Author: NASA Technical Reports Server (NTRS)
Year: 1922
Measurements made during flight with the triple recording device which gives the horizontal and vertical speeds of an airplane and the angle it makes with the horizon, render it possible to calculate its lift, its drag, and R the resultant of the action of the air both in magnitude and direction, but with these data alone, it is impossible to determine the position of this resultant in the plane of symmetry of the airplane. We will also see how we may determine the position of R during flight and then calculate the variations in the stability of an airplane.
