This book supplies the engineering background required to understand the flying qualities of todays fixed-wing aircraft, and lays the essential groundwork for control law designers. " Aircraft Handling Qualities" leads from the full mathematical model of the airframe to the linear models that are useful for both insight and control law design, and discusses the more common flying qualities criteria. The author has good practical experience of flying and handling qualities--results of such experience are not generally available. He combines excellent industrial experience with a teaching post at the University of California, Los Angeles. Final year undergraduates and postgraduates of aeronautical engineering and new entrants to the aeronautical industry will find this text valuable. Includes 200 line illustrations and 10 photographs.
