Features: This book systematically introduces the flight dynamics characteristics of modern aircraft. The book is divided into 5 chapters. The first 2 chapters focus on analyzing the laws of aircraft center-of-mass motion, determining the basic flight performance, endurance performance, takeoff and landing performance, maneuverability, and agility of the aircraft. The last 3 chapters analyze and discuss the motion characteristics of rigid-body aircraft, including the balance, stability, and control characteristics of longitudinal, lateral-directional, and spatial motion, the influence of flight control systems on aircraft dynamics characteristics, and corresponding flight qualities. This book can serve as a textbook or reference for postgraduate students in relevant aerospace disciplines at higher aviation institutions, as well as a reference for professionals in the aviation field.
