NASA’s Flying Qualities Research Contributions to MIL-STD-1797C
U.S. Department of Defense Interface Standard for Flying Qualities of Military Aircraft, MIL-STD-1797B, contains requirements based on decades of research and testing. An update is planned in the future. NASA has conducted or sponsored research projects that can contribute to the update. Results from some of these studies are already included7B, while others have received little or no mention. This report summarizes the most significant of NASA’s contributions to handling qualities for incorporation into MIL-STD-1797C. Topics are classified into one of three areas: directly supporting modifications or additions; amplifying information for existing requirements; or worthy of more detailed investigation.
