What you do there is:



1) you push down on the yoke to recover airspeed,


Do that if you want to crash even sooner.


You also do that in order to avert an impending stall.


2) you use ailerons to level off,


You need to use ailerons, but certainly not to level off.


To level off from the spiral or as the case may be, from an excessive 
roll. The fall is an another matter, to be dealt with separately.



3) apply lift and drag via flaps


Your flaps may be ripped off if you do that.


That's why you don't apply them in full, or willy-nilly.

This is all *so completely wrong* that I don't know where to start to 
correct it.


Is it, though? I kind of think I know what you are talking about in 
pilot training. However what I'm talking about is the optimized control 
law of a modern fly-by-wire fighter jet, or say something like an 
Airbus jumbo. Especially the former *will* know it's aerodynamically 
"unstable" (so as to say it's more "general" in its solution), so that 
in general the optimum path back from a death spiral will almost 
necessarily go through things like intermittent stalls on all flight 
control surfaces.


Sure, human pilots typically haven't been trained to do anything of the 
like. Commercial pilots probably shouldn't, at all. But if you think 
about how to control an aircraft in full, how to control its full 
state space while observing the same, control theory wise, you'll fast 
see the easy and safe manoeuvre taught to pilots is *not* the optimum 
one. And in fact it's not what highly automated fighter jets such as the 
F22 or the F35 really do; nor does any one of the modern Airbus jets. 
They in fact employ spoilers and sometimes even flaps, by automation, 
they do pull down even in a heavy spin in order to preserve planform 
stressess, and so on.


Fons, surely it shows I've not flown an aeroplane in my life. But at the 
same time, it surely also shows you've never written a line of code 
which would automatically and optimally take an airplane optimally out 
of . (Neither have I. But at least I've thought 
about it all, rather systematically and seriously. I even see immediate 
solutions which the pilot academy does not; say, spoiling your energy 
from the death spiral by putting your craft into maximum structurally 
permitted overall stall. You *can* do that and recover from it, you 
know.)



I posted the essentials of getting out of a spiral a week ago.


Please then post a link into the archives. Apparently I could benefit 
from them.

Re: [Sursound] [off-topic] Spirals

2023-03-08 Thread Chris Woolf
Actually the g-force does not increase at all. That's why the death
spiral is so nasty: you don't feel anything at *all*, evenwhile 
you're

going nose down into the ground.

Much of that is because of the intrinsic stability of the aircraft.
Because the stability means the craft wants to stay at 1g towards the
floor. While it stays that way — no matter its actual attitude — you
won't feel anything off even if the thing is inverted in a barrel
roll —
a nice and harmless aerobatic movement — or in a death spiral — with
at most two seconds to die.


And at some point you will notice that you are pinned down in your
seat and unable to move - you are effectively in a centrifuge, way

too

fast, going down, and the g-forces will be so high that they can

break

up the aircraft.
This only happens once you gained too much airspeed and try to 
recover
by pulling up on the yoke. True, if you're already there, not much 
can

be done to recover. But at least don't then pull up the yoke too
fast in
order to break the airframe. At max do something like a "gentle" 5g
curve, and if you then manage to not crash into the terrain, level 
off

and apply some spoiling.

Ah, you too think about this. Hmm. 8)


To recover: > > 1. Reduce power to idle.

Preferably as soon as you know you're losing altitude. Because
you'll be
trading potential energy for kinetic energy/speed from the get go. 
This
is also why I mentioned fighter jets and dog fighting from the get 
go:
that energy count-down (or up) is how dogfighting has been counted 
from

the start. It's how dogfights are won, and the energy management is
also
how planes are either crashed or landed safely.


2. Bring the wings level. This has to be done gently, to avoid even
more mechanical stress.

Yes. However, this is difficult to do once you went into spatial
disorientation, your synthetic horizon is at something like 120
degrees,
and you descend at a about a five kilometres per minute, from an
altitude of, say, a generous ten thousand feet. Within a thick cloud
cover, with all of your instruments yelling at you at the same time.


3. As the wings return to level, the excessive speed will put the
aircraft into a steep climb.

What is "level", here? In a death spiral, the optimum recovery will
take
you through a route where you'll *definitely* not be level. Your nose
will be looking down, at an airspeed which is *way* over your craft's
design limits. That will also take place well after you can 
laterally,
in ailerons, balance the aircraft; as such, even a very little 
take on

the ailerons, or the rudder, the yoke, would immediately either stall
some control surface, or made better, tear each of them apart. And 
you

don't really know what is "level" hear, either; even your
instrumentation is probably fucked up already; believe you me, no
inertial thingy ever survives the kind of vibration an aircraft 
induces

on itself when put into a multiple g's acceleration, combined with a
wide stall.


Let it happen but keep the pitch angle under control.
Exactly so. "Let it happen." Many of the worst accidents on record 
have
happened because pilots fought their planes, instead of "going 
with the

flow" which a plane, designed to be statically stable from the start,
would have done by itself. For example, (ya'll, prolly not Fons) 
take a

look at: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pilot-induced_oscillation .


You will regain some of the lost altitude, and airspeed will
decrease.
Recovery from a near miss death spiral is still more involved. 
Because

you might have to operate the aircraft at structural load, and do a
recovery from a prolonged stall over all of the airframe. You might
actually have to "fly" your airframe over a minute in a full stall 
over

every part of it, and then try to regain aerodynamic control. "After
sinking, flying, and shaking like a rock from a cannon."

It can be done. But nobody teaches you how to do this, and in fact, I
don't know of *one* algorithm which has flown this route.


4. As you approach normal airspeed, bring back power and level off.

That should be obvious, then. It's that third stage before "Profit"
which always slights the eye. ;)

Moro.

Chris Woolf wrote:

Anyone any ideas how one could provide an audio horizon that could be a 
mimic of the gyro artificial horizon?


A vague thought, that applies only to a small amount of surround sound 
recordings.


I do mostly nature recordings and record also in urban areas, where the 
distant
traffic hum is always present. The hum can be heard as a horizontal 
noise somewhere
in the distance. Here in the north the distant traffic noise is also 
different in the
winter and in the summer. We use studded tyres in the cars and they 
cause more
high frequencies in the noise than unstudded tyres. Another thing that 
changes the
sound scene in the winter is snow, it makes the general acoustics more 
dry and then

it is easier to detect the direction of single sound sources.

The problem is that a constant wide spectrum noise (the traffic hum) is 
more difficult

to localize than signals that have transient content.

Having said that, we _do_ localize an above flying jetplane, although it 
produces a noise
type sound. We know from experience, that an aeroplane almost always is 
flying above us.
But are we actively aware of the fact, that distant traffic hum appears 
as a zone above

the horizon?

Also, it would be somewhat strange to put artificially some kind of 
signal "beacons"
at the horizon level around the listener, because they aren't part of 
the actual recording.

rom the get go. This
is also why I mentioned fighter jets and dog fighting from the get go:
that energy count-down (or up) is how dogfighting has been counted from
the start. It's how dogfights are won, and the energy management is 
also

how planes are either crashed or landed safely.

Yes. However, this is difficult to do once you went into spatial
disorientation, your synthetic horizon is at something like 120 
degrees,

and you descend at a about a five kilometres per minute, from an
altitude of, say, a generous ten thousand feet. Within a thick cloud
cover, with all of your instruments yelling at you at the same time.

>> 3. As the wings return to level, the excessive speed will put the

What is "level", here? In a death spiral, the optimum recovery will 
take

you through a route where you'll *definitely* not be level. Your nose
will be looking down, at an airspeed which is *way* over your craft's
design limits. That will also take place well after you can laterally,
in ailerons, balance the aircraft; as such, even a very little take on
the ailerons, or the rudder, the yoke, would immediately either stall
some control surface, or made better, tear each of them apart. And you
don't really know what is "level" hear, either; even your
instrumentation is probably fucked up already; believe you me, no
inertial thingy ever survives the kind of vibration an aircraft induces
on itself when put into a multiple g's acceleration, combined with a
wide stall.

>> Let it happen but keep the pitch angle under control.

Exactly so. "Let it happen." Many of the worst accidents on record have
happened because pilots fought their planes, instead of "going with the
flow" which a plane, designed to be statically stable from the start,
would have done by itself. For example, (ya'll, prolly not Fons) take a
look at: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pilot-induced_oscillation .

>> You will regain some of the lost altitude, and airspeed will
>> decrease.

Recovery from a near miss death spiral is still more involved. Because
you might have to operate the aircraft at structural load, and do a
recovery from a prolonged stall over all of the airframe. You might
actually have to "fly" your airframe over a minute in a full stall over
every part of it, and then try to regain aerodynamic control. "After
sinking, flying, and shaking like a rock from a cannon."

It can be done. But nobody teaches you how to do this, and in fact, I
don't know of *one* algorithm which has flown this route.

> 4. As you approach normal airspeed, bring back power and level off.

That should be obvious, then. It's that third stage before "Profit"
which always slights the eye. ;)
