..

Approach 

or 

Landing

..........

A rudder step input of 20%–30% rudder 

pedal throw must be used. Not required 

if rudder input and response is shown in 

Dutch Roll test (test 2.d.7.). CCA: Test 

in Normal and Non-normal control 

states.

Rudder Response

Approach 

or

..........

May be roll response to a given rudder 

deflection. CCA: Test in Normal and 

Non-normal control states.

May be accomplished as a 

yaw response test, in 

which case the proce-

dures and requirements 

of test 2.d.6.a. will apply.

Record results for at least 6 complete cy-

cles with stability augmentation OFF, or 

the number of cycles sufficient to deter-

mine time to

CCA: Test in Non-normal control state.

Approach 

or 

Landing

..........

Use at least two rudder positions, one of 

which must be near maximum allowable 

rudder. Propeller driven airplanes must 

test in each direction. May be a series 

of snapshot test results. Sideslip angle 

is matched only for repeatability and 

only on continuing qualification evalua-

tions.

ditions (take-off, cruise, and approach 

or landing).
