A number of semi-empirical and theoretical techniques are used to estimate the longitudinal and lateral aerodynamic derivatives of a twin turboprop aircraft, the HP Jetstream. Estimates of the aircraft derivatives are performed for aircraft in a typical cruise condition. Longitudinal parameters are calculated using classical theory and lateral derivatives are calculated using the semi-empirical methods of ESDU.
