MORE THAN 65 YEARS SHARING OUR PASSION… Stability– Static Longitudinal Stability Title Static Longitudinal Stability - Cruise Procedure Trim the airplane in the prescribed configuration and for the condition required by the regulation. Apply a pull force and stabilize at a lower speed. Continue this process in appropriate steps (5 to 10kts) and record displacements and effort at each step. At prescribed stabilized point the pull force should be very gradually relaxed to allow the airplane to slowly return toward trim speed and zero stick force. Set again at the initial trim speed and apply a push force and stabilize at a higher speed. Continue this process in appropriate increments (5 to 10kts) and record displacements and effort at each increment. Relax stick in the same manner as previously described.
