ds, reaching a minimum of - 1.6 pounds per square foot at 2.6 seconds, then rises rapidly to a maximum of 5.6 pounds per square foot at 3.5, then falls more slowly to 0.8 pound per square foot at the seventh second, and afterwards slowly rises. The most significant fact about this tail load is that… … Fig. 25.—Slow flattening out of a dive and turn. Fig. 24.—Slow flattening out^of a dive. The center of pressure travel is quite irregular, moving off the trailing edge at 2.4 seconds. At the time of maximum load the center of pressure position is 20 per cent back of the leading edge.
