Hi Jakub. Reading the Pilot's Flying Handbook, I see no direct correlation between controllability and maneuverability. An airplane can be very controllable regardless of maneuverability eg. aerobatic planes which are both very controllable (fast reaction to control inputs) and maneuverable (able to make tight turns and rapid transitions to climbs/descents). Maneuverability is more directly correlated with performance. I appreciate your input on this.
These terms are specific to engineering and different from the common usage a bit. Controllability and maneuverability are opposed to each other. A fighter jet is highly maneuverable but only marginally controllable. This is why computers control the most maneuverable fighter jets. And glider are highly controllable but not highly maneuverable. You ain't see a glider winning a dog fight. Control refers to the ease of keeping an aircraft stable. Maneuverable refers to the ability to provide an input and the aircraft's speed of response.
This is somewhat wrong. References the aerodynamics for naval aviators. Stability and controllability are inversely related, not as stated in the video. Example being the F-16. It was designed to have negative static stability in order to make it more controllable. Hence the need for onboard computers to compensate for the negative stability. Again, the two are inversely related, not in positive relationship with one another. CFI ATPL
Good explanation. Already placed this in my CFI Binder
Thanks for the video! Saving this one for future reference for sure.
super helpful! thank you!
Hey man, I remember you from Henderson! I was there from ‘08-‘13. Working on my CFI right now. Thanks for the video! Very informative
Good work mate.!
Thank for the video great explanation

concise and precise! found this helpful! Thanks!
Very Very good ! It will help to get my CFI ;) thks !
Best explanation about this.
Great video.
Great explanation, thank you!
Appreciate 😊
thanks for the video! really appreciate it
Very good I was looking for a video to understand this :D
but you are a pilot now ;) I guess you understood well
