Exclamation ''Dutch roll'' & B727, B727 ...

Dutch roll is a typical problem with Boeing.

Instead of rolling right and left and right and left , Airbus is worth : the tail fin gets broken by the typical strength of the roll.

But if the dutch roll begins, it is possible to stop this crazy dynamic, with a little mathematic. I did the demonstration five times in 1992.

At the end the ''dutch roll'' is cause of many incidents and accidents, false qualified.

When will pilots get a real formation to recognize a dutch roll, and come out of it ??

('roulishollandais' is the french expression for 'dutch roll')
