When the fore-aft center of gravity (CG) is out of range, serious aircraft control problems can occur. The fore-aft CG affects the longitudinal stability of the aircraft, with the stability increasing as the CG moves forward and decreasing as the CG moves aft. With a forward CG position, although the stability of the aircraft increases, the ...
In a typical canard aircraft both fore and aft planes are lifting surfaces. The fundamental requirement for static stability is that the aft surface must have greater authority (leverage) in restoring a disturbance than the forward surface has in exacerbating it. This leverage is a product of moment arm from the center of gravity and surface ...
To maintain a safe center of gravity (CG) position, there is a limit to how far aft an engine can be installed. [16] The forward location of the crew may balance the engine weight and will help determine the CG. As the CG location must be kept within defined limits for safe operation load distribution must be evaluated before each flight. [17 ...
The three critical flight dynamics parameters are the angles of rotation in three dimensions about the vehicle's center of gravity (cg), known as pitch, roll and yaw. These are collectively known as aircraft attitude , often principally relative to the atmospheric frame in normal flight, but also relative to terrain during takeoff or landing ...
The position of a swept wing along the fuselage has to be such that the lift from the wing root, well forward of the aircraft center of gravity (c.g.), must be balanced by the wing tip, well aft of the c.g. [68] If the tip stalls first the balance of the aircraft is upset causing dangerous nose pitch up. Swept wings have to incorporate features ...
Kennedy’s position on the drugs seemingly puts him at odds with Dr. Oz, Trump’s nominee to run the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, which manages federal insurance programs and is ...
The second takeoff would be made with the aircraft's center of gravity located in an extreme aft position. [7] This time the aircraft was flown by the co-pilot, while the actions to shut off the engine and hydraulic circuit, and engage the autopilot, were carried out by the captain.
