What is Longitudinal Directional Stability?
Longitudinal directional stability refers to the ability of an aircraft to maintain its heading when disturbed by external forces, such as turbulence or control inputs. It is achieved through proper design of the aircraft's aerodynamic characteristics, including the location of the center of gravity relative to the center of lift. Strong longitudinal directional stability helps pilots maintain control of the aircraft in various flight conditions.

Was the airplane wing the most important part?
The wing of an aircraft is the most important part of the aircraft as it lifts the whole weight of the aircraft. All the maneuvering of the aircraft is done by using the control surfaces(places to control the air flow and thereby producing the desired changes in the aircraft course) in the wings.
What is the purpose of dorsal fin in aircraft?
To provide stability of the aircraft during flight!
What is inherent stability of a airplane?
Inherent stability is the quality of an aircraft that relates to its tendencies when the pilot releases the controls. Most aircraft are designed such that, if you release the controls the aircraft will naturally tend to level out and fly straight and level. These aircraft are said to be "inherently stable." High-performance aircraft such as fighter planes and aerobatic aircraft often have little or no inherent stability and when the pilot releases the controls the aircraft may bank or pitch in one direction or another. These aircraft take much more skill and concentration to fly safely, so most civilian aircraft are designed to provide a high amount of inherent stability.
What has the author W J G Pinsker written?

Pinsker has written: 'Some observations on manoeuvre stability and longitudinal control' 'Aileron control of small-aspect-ratio aircraft; in particular, Delta aircraft' 'A form of lateral instability of lifting free-flight models towed by a helicopter' -- subject(s): Lateral Stability of airplanes, Lift (Aerodynamics) 'A semi-empirical method for estimating the rotary rolling moment derivatives of swept and slender wings' 'The control characteristics of aircraft employing direct-lift control' -- subject(s): Airplanes, Control surfaces, Lift (Aerodynamics)

What is the RSC system Ford Explorer?
Roll Stability Control , its part of the Advance Trac system ( traction control , electronic stability control , Roll Stability Control )
What primary aircraft structure provides directional stability?
tail
How does a aeroplane move?
Elevators control the pitch (up and down) of the aircraft. Ailerons control the roll of the aircraft. And rudders control the yaw of the aircraft.
What are the five most important criteria when building an aircraft?
1) Structure (strength 2) Aerodynamics 3) Thrust 4) Stability 5) Center of Gravity (CG)
