Lateral aerodynamic parameters of the X-31 drop model were estimated from flight data at angles of attack between 25 deg and 45 deg. Partitioned data from an ensemble of 12 maneuvers and data from 13 single maneuvers were analyzed by a stepwise regression technique to obtain an aerodynamic model structure and least squares parameter estimates. Because of data collinearity in several maneuvers, these maneuvers were reanalyzed by two biased estimation techniques, mixed estimation and fractional rank regression. The final parameter estimates in the form of stability and control derivatives were plotted against the angle of attack and compared with wind tunnel results and a limited number of estimates from full-scale aircraft data. There was no significant disagreement between parameters from the two sets of drop model data and the full-scale aircraft data. Some differences, however, existed between the dihedral, damping-in-roll, and aileron-effectiveness parameters from flight and wind tunnel data.
