Abstract
IN the following notes the phenomenon of ground looping which may be defined as an uncontrollable fast turn on the ground is briefly analysed by semitechnical methods. The analysis has been restricted to a condition which in the opinion of experienced pilots causes trouble most frequently namely, a landing with dead stick, when there is no slipstream available to make the rudder more effective. The equations of lateral motion for an aeroplane in contact with the ground have been written clown as an introduction to more thorough study. Finally, certain tentative conclusions have been drawn for application in aeroplane design with a view to eliminating or at least reducing ground loop tendencies.
