NASA Flight Research Center conducted flying-qualities evaluation of representative personal aircraft (Aero Commander 680 FP, Cessna 210 E and 310 I, Piper Apache 23-160, Beech A33 Debonair, and Beech S35 Bonanza); during instrument flight, particularly in presence of turbulence, flying qualities of these aircraft are such that excessive pilot effort is required to perform precise tracking tasks such as instrument landing system approaches; improved characteristics would alleviate much of effort required; method of quantitatively evaluating effect of individual stability and control characteristics on pilot workload is needed.
