Abstract:

The report summarizes the research work into aircraft flight control concepts carried out by WL and DLR under the MoU. Addressed are the methods and scientific approaches used for two subtasks as Pilot vehicle integration and In- Flight Simulation Methodologies . Main emphasis from WL is laid on the different projects performed on the NT-33 and TIFS In-Flight Simulators in order to identify the influence of various system related parameters on longitudinal and lateral handling qualities. The work done by DLR describes the specific technique to be used for ground attack tasks GRATE for handling quality research and the development and system identification of DLRs new In Flight Simulator ATTAS.
