Flight investigation of the effect of vertical-tail size on the rolling behavior of a swept-wing airplane having lateral-longitudinal coupling

Thomas W Finch, James R Peele, Richard E. Day

Abstract

Report presenting flight testing over a range of Mach numbers to determine the rolling behavior of a swept-wing airplane with lateral-longitudinal coupling. Results regarding the size of the tail area, speed effects, engine gyroscopic effects, and wing-tip extensions are provided.
