ly damped out, disappearing after a single swing. As the controls are centralized the angle increases for an instant and then falls off rapidly. Accelerometer records on this same airplane show a continuous oscillation of small amplitude throughout the duration of the spin, but this oscillation… … O / 23456763 /0 T/me /'n Seconcfs. Fig. 5. The variation of angle on the outside wing is plotted in figure 5. Here, too, there is an oscillation, the angle of attack increasing as the machine starts to fall into the spin and then falling off as the rate of rotation approaches its steady value. The…
