I've not noticed aileron buffet in the 38 even at max deflection.
The ailerons are extremely effective on the airplane.
About buffet; you actually work high performance jets like the 38 by
using the buffet boundary. You can pull the pole and feel the buffet
onset in pitch. It's a highly effective warning when maneuvering
hard.

you're talking mach buffet now, right? not normal flow seperation..

I would have thought you might get buffet problems with large
deflections in and around transonic flight. We can, certainly, but
our airplanes aren't desingned for supersonic flight, of course..

The buffet limit is actually the subsonic buffet limit and defines the
lift limit line for the 38. In other words, below corner speed, you
are aerodynamically limited in maneuvering room by the lift limit line
which basically means you can pull to the buffet.
In effect, the tactical buffet line defines the left side of the T38's
flight envelope.



Yeh, OK I understand buffet in relation to loading but the control
deflections have no effect on the onset of buffet? Is that not why you
have a limit when close to mach 1?

Bertie

The roll restriction is totally unrelated to tac buffet. For all
practical purposes you can forget aileron buffet as a problem in the
T38. The issue with the roll limit is divergence through inertia roll
coupling. In other words, at the q found at .9 Mach and above, max
aileron throw will generate a roll rate high enough that the roll axis
changes from pure roll and couples either in pitch or with yaw or even
both under specific angles of attack as the roll is initiated; and this
NEW roll axis is so unstable due to the IYMP that departure is a real
possibility.

That's the secret. The only guy I know who can afford to fly these
things without actually getting paid to fly them is Ross Perot Jr., and
even he's in a world of trouble with his T38. He's caught between the
government and his lawyers. I can't think of a worse place to be than
that :-))

I think you'll be surprised at how easy it is to fly. Contrary to
popular belief, I've always felt that the faster they fly the easier
they are to fly. You can do practically everything you need to do in the
T38 for example with your feet flat on the floor. Practically no adverse
yaw at all. It's a dream to fly.
Good luck with your flight.

T38 for example with your feet flat on the floor. Practically no

adverse
yaw at all. It's a dream to fly.
Good luck with your flight.

Thnaks! Won't be anytime soon. I think they broke it again.

Vampire? The side by side version I presume?
Remember that great scene in "Breaking The Sound Barrier" when the
"hero" takes his wife on a trip from England to Egypt in a two seat
Vamp? Beautiful black and white photography in that picture.
Hope you get to fly it. Nearest thing I can relate to that I've flown
would be the Canadair Tutor. I flew the Snowbirds #10 as a guest of the
team at one time. Great little airplane and very easy to fly.
I'm sure you won't have the slightest problem with the Vampire if they
ever get it running.

Default How come the wings bank when I use the rudder

In addition to what others have said, another interesting question to
ponder is why the airplane yaws when you bank.


The yaw is induced by the ailerons, so the only time you need to apply
rudder is when you are changing your bank angle with the ailerons. On
the side where the aileron is down, the wing has more lift, and more
drag. On the other side, the lift is spoiled and there is less drag.
The draggy wing yaws backwards, requiring opposite rudder.


that's adverse yaw. I beleive he meant why does the airplane yaw in the
same direction (eventually) as the direction of roll?

Bertie,

I assumed that adverse yaw was what he was asking about since it is
the most pronounced effect.

To answer the question the other way:

The reason for rudder use in a sustained bank is due to the fact that
the airspeed of the outside wing is slightly higher than the airspeed
of the inside wing due to the difference in arc-distance that each
wing is traveling in a turn. The outside wing has a little more drag
due to the higher airspeed and a little bit of rudder is required to
compensate.
