Rolling Wings
When the aircraft is rolling, and additional term may be added that will add the wing station distance multiplied by the rate of roll to give additional angle of attack change. Equation 3 will then become
where
- is the rate of roll in rad/sec,
Note that y can be negative. This addition will introduce non-zero even coefficients in the equation which will have to accounted for.
