1 Gliding, Climbing, and Turning Flight Performance Robert Stengel, Aircraft Flight Dynamics, MAE 331, 2018 Learning Objectives Conditions for gliding flight Parameters for maximizing climb angle and rate Review the V-n diagram Energy height and specific excess power Alternative expressions for steady turning flight The Herbst maneuver Reading: Flight Dynamics Aerodynamic Coefficients, Copyright 2018 by Robert Stengel. All rights reserved. For educational use only Review Questions How does air density decrease with altitude? hat are the different definitions of airspeed? hat is a lift-drag polar? Power and thrust: How do they vary with altitude? hat factors define the flight envelope? hat were some features of the first commercial transport aircraft? hat are the important parameters of the Breguet Range Equation? hat is a step climb, and why is it important? 2 1
