Abstract
Aircraft landing in strong wind has been a safety problem for all types of aircraft. The specific issues involve hard landing, roll oscillation and runway veer-off. These issues are related to atmospheric disturbances, and/or dynamic ground effect. As a result, the aerodynamics will be different from those in steady flow concept. In this paper, some of the pertinent stability and control derivatives based on a small-disturbance concept will be presented. How these local stability and control characteristics affect global controllability will be examined with Fuzzy-Logic Dynamic Inversion. Controllability is judged from whether necessary control deflections exceed the imposed limits. Specific examples involving a twin-jet transport with hard landing, rolling oscillation before touchdown and runway veer-off event due to varying crosswind after touchdown are illustrated.
