Static Stability

✈️Static stability is the initial tendency of an aircraft to return to its original position when it's disturbed.

⛔Three types of static stability:

🔰Postive

🔰Neutral

🔰Negative

...

👨🏻‍✈️Positive Static Stability

✈️When an object is displaced from its position by an external force, and then returns to its original position after the force is removed

...

👨🏻‍✈️Neutral Static Stability

✈️When an object is displaced from its original position by an external force, and then tends to remain in this displaced position.

...

👨🏻‍✈️Negative Static Stability

✈️When an object is displaced from its original position by an external force, and then moves even further away from the original position.

...

⭕Positive Static Stability is the most desirable, as the aircraft attempts to move back to its original trimmed position. Neutral and Negative Stability are undesirable.
