Book Description
This fifth simulation experiment, using the U.S. Navy X-22A variable stability V/STOL aircraft, was undertaken to generate data for the development to flying qualities and advanced flight control system design criteria for the visual shipboard landing task. Since a broad range of flying qualities were simulated, actual landings were not performed because of flight safety considerations. Instead, a discrete three-dimensional position tracking task, presented to the pilot on a Head-Up-Display (HUD), was devised to evoke pilot control and stabilization activity similar to that in the actual shipboard environment. A microwave landing system with precision ranging capability served as the guidance sensor for both the translational rate flight control system mechanizations and for the HUD tracking information. A total of 111 evaluations were performed of various horizontal and vertical translational rate flight control system dynamics. The primary results of the program defined regions of satisfactory and acceptable flying qualities as functions of velocity command gain and the time constant of velocity response. The limits on command gain and time constant for satisfactory flying qualities indicated by this experiment are considerably smaller than those determined in ground simulator experiments. (Author).

V/STOL Dynamics, Control, and Flying Qualities
Author: James A. Franklin
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category : Airplanes
Languages : en
Pages : 198
Book Description
This publication presents materials that constituted the lectures presented by the author as part of Course AA 234 Dynamics, Control, and Flying Qualities of V/STOL Aircraft that was taught in the Department of Aeronautics and Astronautics at Stanford University. It covers representative operations of vertical and short takeoff and landing (V/STOL) aircraft, a discussion of the pilot's strategy in controlling these aircraft, the equations of motion pertinent to V/STOL tasks, and their application in the analysis of longitudinal and lateral-directional control in hover and forward flight. Following that development, which applies to the characteristics of the basic airframe and propulsion system, the text concludes with a discussion of the contributions of control augmentation in specific flight tasks and of the integration of modern electronic displays with these controls.
