Utilizing your notes and past knowledge answer the following questions:
1) Define Static stability.2) Define Dynamic stability.3) Stability in an aircraft affects what to

Static Stability• Static stability
refers to the initial tendency, or direction of movement, back to equilibrium.
Utilizing your notes and past knowledge answer the following questions:
1) Define Static stability.2) Define Dynamic stability.3) Stability in an aircraft affects what to
aspects of an aircraft.4) Define Lateral stability.5) Describe the effect of wing dihedral.
Warm-Up – 11/5 – 10 minutes
Dynamic Stability• Dynamic stability refers to the aircraft
response over time when disturbed from a given AOA, slip, or bank.
• This type of stability also has three subtypes:
Utilizing your notes and past knowledge answer the following questions:
1) Define Static stability.2) Define Dynamic stability.3) Stability in an aircraft affects what to
aspects of an aircraft.4) Define Lateral stability.5) Describe the effect of wing dihedral.
Warm-Up – 11/5 – 10 minutes
Dynamic Stability• Stability in an
aircraft affects two areas significantly:
• Maneuverability
• Controllability
Utilizing your notes and past knowledge answer the following questions:
1) Define Static stability.2) Define Dynamic stability.3) Stability in an aircraft affects what to
aspects of an aircraft.4) Define Lateral stability.5) Describe the effect of wing dihedral.
Warm-Up – 11/5 – 10 minutes
Lateral Stability (Rolling)• Stability about the
aircraft’s longitudinal axis is called lateral stability.
• This helps to stabilize the lateral or “rolling effect” when one wing gets lower than the wing on the opposite side of the aircraft.
Utilizing your notes and past knowledge answer the following questions:
1) Define Static stability.2) Define Dynamic stability.3) Stability in an aircraft affects what to
aspects of an aircraft.4) Define Lateral stability.5) Describe the effect of wing dihedral.
Warm-Up – 11/5 – 10 minutes
Lateral Stability (Rolling)Dihedral
• The effect of dihedral is to produce a rolling tendency to return the aircraft to a laterally balanced flight condition when a sideslip occurs.

Chapter 4 – Aerodynamics of FlightFAA – Pilot’s Handbook of Aeronautical Knowledge
Mission: Identify in writing the forces acting on an aircraft in flight. Describe how the forces of light work and how to control them
with the use of power and flight controls essential to flight. Describe the aerodynamics of flight. Describe in writing how design, weight, load factors, and gravity
affect an aircraft during flight maneuvers.
EQ: Describe the importance of Aeronautical Knowledge for the
student pilot learning to fly.

Aerodynamic Forces in Flight Maneuvers
Forces in Turns• Aircraft in a bank
lift did not act directly opposite to the weight, rather it now acts in the direction of the bank.
• A basic truth about turns: when the aircraft banks, lift acts inward toward the center of the turn, as well as upward.
during the bank is divided into vertical and horizontal components, the amount of lift opposing gravity and supporting the aircraft’s weight is reduced.
• An important fact for pilots to remember when making constant altitude turns is that the vertical component of lift must be equal to the weight to maintain altitude.
