The Short SB 5 is a low-speed research aircraft capable of operation with wing sweepback angles of 50°, 60°, or 69°, various wing leading-edge configurations, and a high or low tailplane. Extensive flight measurements have ...
Pilots' control movements and the accuracy of touchdown have been analysed for two distinct crosswind landing techniques. The sideslipping technique gave generally better accuracy at touchdown. On the other hand, the ...
Summary. The effect of speed stability on pilot workload and accuracy on the approach has been investigated with the Avro 707A research aircraft. Speed instability was simulated by a reversed autothrottle which applied ...
