| Abstract | Abstract : The effect of a deployed air cushion landing gear on the stability of a high performance aircraft was studied at the Naval Ship Research and Development Center's 8 x 10 foot subsonic wind tunnel. Air cushion designs submitted by Bell Aerospace Corporation and Boeing were fitted to a ten percent scale A-4E and air cushions designed by Goodyear (two configurations), San Diego Aircraft Engineering Incorporated (SANDAIRE), and Bell were fitted to a ten percent scale F-8C. The effects of the air cushion landing gear ranged from minor destabilization, to very detrimental destabilization on both aircraft in the landing approach configuration. |
