Longitudinal Stability and Control Characteristics at High Subsonic Speeds of Two Models of a Transonic Research Airplane With Wings and Horizontal Tails of Aspect Ratios 4.2 and 2 (open access)

Longitudinal Stability and Control Characteristics at High Subsonic Speeds of Two Models of a Transonic Research Airplane With Wings and Horizontal Tails of Aspect Ratios 4.2 and 2

Report discussing an investigation of two transonic research airplane models at a range of Mach numbers and Reynolds numbers. The main difference between the models was the aspect ratio of the horizontal tail. Results regarding the stability, control, incremental horizontal-tail characteristics, downwash, horizontal-tail load, stability factors, and a tailless configuration are provided.
