Abstract

In January 2017, a business jet flew in Norway on a short repositioning flight with two pilots onboard, no passengers or cargo. Initially, the take-off proceeded as normal but as the landing gear was retracted both pilots observed that the airspeed was rapidly approaching the flap limiting speed of 200kts. When the flaps were fully retracted at a height of approximately 2,100ft above ground level, the crew experienced a violent nose-down pitch motion. Control was regained at a height of approximately 170ft above ground level and, following the accident, data from the flight data recorder showed that the aircraft experienced –2.62G during the pitch upset. A tailplane stall due to icing was suspected; however, the flight data recorder, being limited to 36 parameters, was not able to confirm this. For expediency during the accident investigation process, a simplified, linear flight dynamics model was developed using Matlab/Simulink to assess static and dynamic stability for a range of tailplane efficiency factors to simulate the effects of tailplane icing.
飞行事故失控案例研究:与结冰有关的尾翼失速
2017年1月,一架公务机在挪威进行了一次短暂的重新定位飞行,机上有两名飞行员,没有乘客或货物。起初,起飞照常进行,但由于起落架收放,两名飞行员观察到空速正在迅速接近200节的襟翼限制速度。当襟翼在距地面约2100英尺的高度完全收回时,机组人员经历了剧烈的俯仰运动。事故发生后,飞机在距地面约170英尺的高度恢复了控制,飞行数据记录器的数据显示,飞机在俯仰翻转期间经历了-2.62G。怀疑尾翼因结冰而失速;然而,由于飞行数据记录仪只能记录36个参数,因此无法证实这一点。为了便于事故调查,利用Matlab/Simulink建立了一个简化的线性飞行动力学模型,对一系列尾翼效率因子进行静、动稳定性评估,模拟尾翼结冰的影响。
