What is Elevator Control and Effectiveness Analysis about?

This document discusses longitudinal control and elevator effectiveness for controlling the pitch attitude of an airplane. It provides equations that relate how deflecting the elevator changes the lift (CL) and pitching moment (Cm) of the airplane. It also describes how to calculate the elevator angle needed to trim the aircraft at a given lift coefficient (CLtrim) and discusses using flight test data to estimate the stick fixed neutral point.
