Hanson and Stengel (1981) have described the effects of saturating controls on the initial-condition response of statically unstable aircraft. In an analysis of the stability augmentation system, consideration was given to maximizing the region of stable response. The present investigation is concerned with an extension of the control saturation analysis to the problem of command response, taking into account the main problem of control design for satisfactory flying qualities (as perceived by the pilot). A model for examining the effects of control saturation on longitudinal stability and command response is developed and applied to an aircraft with a static instability. Three parameters prescribing longitudinal flying qualities are examined with respect to their ability to identify proper flying qualities in the presence of control saturation. The presented analysis provides also satisfactory guidelines for establishing command saturation/stability boundaries.
