An analysis was conducted of the attitude and flight-path-angle response of configurations used in the total inflight simulator pitch rate command systems program. The results showed poor correlation between the pilot ratings and attitude response and indicate that attitude was not a major influence in the results. A strong correlation was found to exist, however, between the amount of flight-path-angle peak overshoot and the pilot ratings. This correlation is similar to the best correlations that have been obtained in recent closed-loop and time-domain analyses, but has the advantage of greatly simplified implementation and interpretation.
