Abstract :
The authors review five major areas of lessons learned in the discipline of flying qualities in 1988. Specifically, they examine flight-control system automatic limiters, the effects of `small´ aerodynamic changes, the effect of thrust increases, the effect of discretization of existing analog systems, and simulator evaluation results of some flight-control modes. Aircraft from which the lessons are drawn are the F-16, a conceptual agile fighter design, the E-8A, YA-7F, F-14A+/D, F-15, F-111, and F-15 S/MTD
