B(3—A linear quantity equal to length OA of Figure 8, which is the distance from the c. g. to the point of zero yaw. 9 J? A—Turning coefficient defined as ~-… … Figure 8—Diagram of the Los Angeles in a turn ^ The turning characteristics were computed from values taken from the curves of Figures 3 to 6 at 10-second intervals during conditions of steady turning. The observed and computed values are given in Table I. An explanation of the method of computing…
