A theoretical investigation has been made of the influence of changes in vertical tail area and dihedral angle on the lateral flying characteristics of an airplane. The lateral motions were computed for nine different combinations of vertical tail area and dihedral, covering the range of parameters used in the design of typical airplanes. The motions were initiated by aileron and rudder controls, and consideration was given to various amounts of yawing moment accompanying aileron control.
