Abstract
This report presents the handling qualities and stability derivatives of the X-24B research aircraft. Handling qualities were excellent for the subsonic flight and the approach and landing task. For transonic and supersonic flight, the rocket engine had a significant effect on flying qualities. Handling qualities with the rocket engine off were adequate to good. Power-on flying qualities were degraded by low directional stability. Roll and pitch control was adequate or good for all phases of flight.Keywords
