the responses for an incidence lag of 1, 2 and 4 s, the short period mode parameters
being held constant throughout. In accordance with the models given by equations
(10.2), (10.5) and (10.6) the corresponding incidence, normal acceleration and flight
path angle responses would remain unchanged. However, the pitch motion cue to
the pilot may well suggest a reduction in damping in view of the significant increase
in pitch rate
