Development of Handling Quality Criteria for Aircraft with Independent Control of Six Degrees of Freedom

Abstract : A tentative flying quality criterion has been developed for aircraft with direct force controls which allow independent control over the six inertial degrees of freedom. The criterion is based on analysis of existing flight test and simulation data as well as the results of an abbreviated flight test conducted during the program. (Author)
