Pilot-induced oscillation is a frightening aspect of pitch control of an aircraft. Numerous planes have been set into pilot-induced oscillation due to the phase lag of the human in the loop control.

As we saw last time, some airplanes exhibit degraded pitch stability and a tendency to pitch up as the angle of attack increases up to and beyond the point where the stall begins. This is never a ...
