An examination of the technique of the measurement of the longitudinal manoeuvring characteristics of an aeroplane, and a proposal for a standardised method

D. J. Lyons (1947)

It is demonstrated in this report that the 'steady stick force per g' as defined by Gates and Lyon in R. & M. 2027 is the best criterion for the measurement of manoeuvrability of an aircraft because: (a) practically, it ...
Investigations on stalling behaviour, rudder oscillations, take-off swing and flow round nacelles on the Tudor 1 aircraft

D. J. Lyons (1947)

During the development of the Tudor I aircraft, the Royal Aircraft Establishment co-operated in the flight tests. This report summarises the results, which are felt to be of general interest. The importance of 'deep tufting' ...
Note on the dynamic characteristics of servo-tab systems of control

D. Adamson; D. J. Lyons (1948)

Generalised curves have been constructed from which estimates can be made of those dynamic characteristics of the servo-tab-type of control which are of chief interest to the designer, viz., (i) the magnitude of the first ...
