Abstract:

An aircrafts flight safety and handling qualities are directly related to its stability and control characteristics. It is for this reason that the AGARD Flight Mechanics Panel has periodic Stability and Control symposia. Progress in aircraft configuration, mechanical systems, hydraulic systems, electronic systems, and cockpit systems since the 1966 symposium have contributed an abundant supply of new information. This, along with refinements in criteria and requirements, provided a wealth of material for the symposium documented in this report.
