Abstract :
A preliminary control system design for the YF-16 CCV aircraft in its longitudinal mode satisfying its flying qualities specifications is investigated. The design is shown to be robustly stable when the actuator model and the unstable pole in the airframe model of the aircraft are subjected to structured uncertainties. Very recent tools of robust stability analysis are utilized to accomplish this goal.<>
