CS 25.351 Yaw manoeuvre conditions
ED Decision 2013/010/R
(see AMC 25.351)
The aeroplane must be designed for loads resulting from the yaw manoeuvre conditions specified in subparagraphs (a) through (d) of this paragraph at speeds from VMC to VD. Unbalanced aerodynamic moments about the centre of gravity must be reacted in a rational or conservative manner considering the aeroplane inertia forces. In computing the tail loads the yawing velocity may be assumed to be zero.
(a) With the aeroplane in unaccelerated flight at zero yaw, it is assumed that the cockpit rudder control is suddenly displaced to achieve the resulting rudder deflection, as limited by:
(1) the control system or control surface stops; or
(2) a limit pilot force of 1335 N (300 lbf) from VMC to VA and 890 N (200 lbf) from VC/MC to VD/MD, with a linear variation between VA and VC/MC.
(b) With the cockpit rudder control deflected so as always to maintain the maximum rudder deflection available within the limitations specified in subparagraph (a) of this paragraph, it is assumed that the aeroplane yaws to the overswing sideslip angle.
(c) With the aeroplane yawed to the static equilibrium sideslip angle, it is assumed that the cockpit rudder control is held so as to achieve the maximum rudder deflection available within the limitations specified in sub-paragraph (a) of this paragraph.
(d) With the aeroplane yawed to the static equilibrium sideslip angle of sub-paragraph (c) of this paragraph, it is assumed that the cockpit rudder control is suddenly returned to neutral.
[Amdt 25/13]
Large airplanes must withstand yaw maneuver loads from minimum control speed to design dive speed. This involves sudden rudder deflections, considering control limits and pilot force. The design must account for overswing sideslip, static equilibrium sideslip with maximum rudder, and sudden rudder return to neutral, ensuring structural integrity.
