  • Aft fuselage control system for forward lifting elevator aircraft
    Patent number: 6626401
    Abstract: A system providing aft fuselage flight controls on forward lifting elevator aircraft. My invention relates to aft fuselage controls on a forward lifting elevator aircraft, with the main lifting wing placed aft on the fuselage, and equipped with trailing edge flaps. My embodiment includes a means for controlling a nose down pitching condition produced by lowering trailing edge flaps, using aft vertical flaps 2. The design of the aft vertical flaps 2 produces a tail-down moment to counter the main aft wing trailing edge flap action. In addition, the aft vertical flaps 2 add drag to the aircraft when deployed.
