About this book

NASA Technical Reports Server (NTRS) 19930090700: Approximate Calculation of the Static Longitudinal Stability of Airplanes

Author: NASA Technical Reports Server (NTRS)

Year: 1926

It seems desirable to have some simple method for calculating quickly and with sufficient accuracy: 1) the correct position of the center of gravity; 2) the requisite tail-group dimensions; 3) and the course of the wing and tail-group moments. In out deductions, we will first replace the biplane (disregarding the effect of stagger, decalage and induced drag) by an equivalent monoplane, whose dimensions and position in space can be approximately determined in a simple manner.
