1longitudinal stability — The stability of an airplane about the lateral (pitching) axis. An airplane is stable if, when its angle of attack is temporarily increased, forces act in such a way as to push the nose down and thus decrease the angle of attack. The main factors …
2Longitudinal static stability — is important in determining whether an aircraft will be able to fly as intended. Static stability As any vehicle moves it will be subjected to minor changes in the forces that act on it, and in its speed. * If such a change causes further changes …
