Question 38
AEMSQ2 marksNeeds review
A general aviation airplane is initially in steady and level flight. The stability coefficient
(
is the airplane pitching moment coefficient and
is the pitch rate) is negative. The airplane is perturbed with a small nose-up constant pitch rate. Assume that the horizontal tail does not stall during the perturbation, and instead effects are neglected. When compared to steady and level flight condition, which of the following statements is/are true during the perturbed motion?Your answerSelect all correct options. You can choose more than one.
