Across
- 3. The less stable an aircraft is, the ________ maneuverable it will be
- 5. Stability around the lateral axis is known as ________ stability
- 7. Stability around the vertical axis is known as ________ stability
- 9. Stability around the longitudinal axis is known as ________ stability
- 12. Part of the airplane used to achieve directional stability
- 15. The upward angle of the wings which helps lateral stability
- 16. Flight control that affects the longitudinal or roll axis
- 18. Moving the C of G forward of the center of pressure will result in a _______ stalling speed
- 19. Part of the airplane used to achieve lateral stability
Down
- 1. The tendency for an aircrafts oscillations to neither increase or decrease would be referred to as __________ dynamic stability
- 2. The tendency for an aircraft to oscillate about it axes, with the oscillations decreasing in magnitude over time would be an example of _________ dynamic stability
- 4. Part of the airplane used to achieve longitudinal stability
- 6. When the aircraft design has negative static stability (unstable), it has a natural tendency to move _______ from its original position after a disturbance
- 8. Flight control that affects the lateral or pitch axis
- 10. Yaw force in opposite direction of turn caused by the drag generated by the down going aileron is called
- 11. A C of G which is too far left or right of the centerline of the aircraft will create an instability in the _______ axis
- 13. Loading the aircraft so the C of G is aft of the center of pressure will create an instability on which axis?
- 14. Flight control that affects the vertical or yaw axis
- 17. If an aircraft design has positive static stability (stable) and its tendency is to oscillate, with the oscillations increasing in magnitude until the aircraft loses control it has ________ dynamic stability
