Flight Stability

Flight Stability is a theoretical construct in aerospace engineering that denotes the inherent capacity of an aircraft to maintain or return to a desired flight equilibrium following atmospheric disturbances, distinguished from related stability concepts by its specific focus on aerodynamic behavior across longitudinal, lateral, and directional axes during sustained flight operations.
