The shape is aerodynamically stable enough to be flown without computer correction.

"They certainly don't seem to be aerodynamically stable," said Carrion.

It was also particularly aerodynamically stable at high speeds for a relatively light, narrow and tall car.

Our descent through the air will be slowed by the aerodynamically stable design of the nets and pancakes.

It proved to be aerodynamically stable in flight, and was one of the first fixed-wing aircraft ever to do so.

As gear technology and flight techniques improved in the early 1970s, both sports seem to have developed these aerodynamically stable "body positions".

Surface transpiration also reduced skin friction, which kept the spacecraft more aerodynamically stable.

"We might need an aerodynamically stable hull," Wade interjected.

Zuiden had assumed the skydiver's arch position - chest forward, arms back, aerodynamically stable and face down.

The shuttlecock's shape makes it extremely aerodynamically stable.

To ensure the structure would be watertight yet aerodynamically stable and flexible, new construction techniques were developed .

It therefore had to be aerodynamically stable, but also cheap and easy to construct as it would only be used once.

The wings can be pneumatically tilted forwards into an aerodynamically stable high-drag "feathered" shape.

The arrow was too heavy to be aerodynamically stable over long distances, but the thing masquerading as Tachyon was less than twenty-five feet away.

The airframe is a two-stage, aerodynamically stable structure that houses and protects the airborne missile equipment during powered flight.

reenter atmosphere and shed kinetic energy in an aerodynamically stable configuration

Most discs are designed to be aerodynamically stable so that this roll is self-correcting for a fairly broad range of velocities and rates of spin.

The shuttlecock is also extremely aerodynamically stable: regardless of initial orientation, it will turn to fly cork-first, and remain in the cork-first orientation.

Nevertheless, their British crews generally were quite pleased with the Fortress I, regarding it as easy to fly, very maneuverable, and aerodynamically stable in the bomb run.

The Department of Defense terminated DarkStar in January 1999, after determining the UAV was not aerodynamically stable and was not meeting cost and performance objectives.

The shape is determined partly by aerodynamics; a capsule is aerodynamically stable falling blunt end first, which allows only the blunt end to require a heat shield for atmospheric reentry.

When a trajectory solution has been obtained, time-to-target and terminal velocity are checked to ensure that there will be enough time to maneuver and that the projectile is aerodynamically stable - that it will not stall while maneuvering.

When the Soyuz started aerobraking in the upper reaches of the atmosphere, the combined spacecraft sought the most aerodynamically stable position - nose forward, with the heavy descent module facing directly into the air stream with only its light metal entry hatch at the front to protect it.
