Slow control at high altitude


Supersonic

Recommended Posts

I've noticed the controls become very slow around 30000ft, for example the roll rate is like a Cessna 172 not a Mig 15.

Has anyone else noticed this, it's like icing on the wings???

IAS was around 600kph, seems to get worse the higher the altitude.

Another test flight... Aircraft clean configuration at 33000ft straight and level flight the controls became slow at 0.7 Mach until somewhere between 0.9 Mach and 1.0 Mach when compression stall made it depart from controlled flight, I really didn't expect it would reach that mach number while straight and level???
