Chapter 6
Longitudinal Dynamics
6.1 RESPONSE TO CONTROLS
The solution of the longitudinal equations of motion by, for example, the methods
described in Chapter 5 enables the response transfer functions to be obtained. These
completely describe the linear dynamic response to a control input in the plane of
symmetry. Implicit in the response are the dynamic properties determined by the
stability characteristics of the aeroplane. The transfer functions and the response
variables described by them are linear since the entire modelling process is based on
the assumption that the motion is constrained to small disturbances ...
