Recovery Techniques for Aircraft in Spinning Flight.

Abstract

This study represents an attempt to use numerical solutions of the equations of motion to discover the most effective control surface deflections for use in a delta-winged fighter for recovery from a fully developed spin. The recovery methods were tested upon stable spins since the stable flat spin is generally the most dangerous spin.
