Stability and Control of Helicopters in Steep Approaches. Volume 4. Derivatives and Transfer Functions for the AH-56A Compound Helicopter and Data on Low-Altitude Turbulence Representation

Abstract

Derivatives and transfer functions are presented for the Lockheed AH- 56A helicopter. The flight conditions considered include airspeeds of from 0 to 100 knots and descent rates from 0 to 28.8 fps. A critical review is given of data on low altitude turbulence.
