An approximate method is given for assessing the stability' of a towed object, using the same basic theory as Glauert and Etkin and Mackworth. The analysis is developed in terms of lateral stability, but can be simply ...
Long-period lateral oscillations of an aeroplane under automatic control on Northerly headings are shown to be due to high speed in a region of large magnetic-dip angle accompanied by strong monitoring of the gyromagnetic ...
