Hi
I'm trying to find an easy way to evaluate how much a 10" longer nose (i.e. 10" fwd move of propeller, from about 90" to 100" from CG) will impact longitudinal and directional stability of the airplane. Anyone knows? I'm only interested in percentage change in stability, and not so much the absolute values. I ordered "Airplane Performance, Stability and Control" by Perkins and Hage today, but it will take a few weeks before I get it.
Thanks!!
