dc.description.abstract	Flight tests have been made to measure the static and dynamic longitudinal stability, the effect of ground on stability, and the elevator power of the Avro 7078 which has a delta wing sweptback 44.5 degress. A comparison of the results with those of tunnel tests is made. There is a loss of static stability, stick fixed and free, above a lift coefficient of 0.5. Stick force/g at low speed is small particularly at the aft og position, although no great difficulties were encountered due to this or the lack of static stability during the approach and landing.	en_US
