"The relation between the elevator hinge-moment parameters and the control-forces for changes in forward speed and in maneuvers is shown for several values of static stability and elevator mass balance. The stability of the short-period oscillations is shown as a series of boundaries giving the limits of the stable region in terms of the elevator hinge-moment parameters. The effects of static stability, elevator moment of inertia, elevator mass unbalance, and airplane density are also considered" (p. 1).
