The report presents the results of a limited flight test investigation of pilot-induced oscillation (PIO) due to elevator rate limiting. The objective of this effort was to gather in-flight and ground-based simulation data on longitudinal PIO tendecies due to elevator rate limiting. Preliminary, ground-based simulation was conducted at the USAF Test Pilot School (TPS) from 1 March to 9 April 1997. Nine sorties, totaling 12.8 flight hours, were flown in the NT-33A aircraft. Additional ground-based simulation was conducted at the Flight Dynamics Directorate, Wright-Patterson AFB, Ohio, on 25 April 1997. The USAF TPS was the responsible test organization.
