Tentative STOL (Short-Takeoff-and-Landing) Flying Qualities Criteria for MIL Standard and Handbook.

摘要

A move is underway in the military services to expand the scope of the military flying qualities specification, MIL-F-8785C to include STOL flying qualities. This report is the result of review, analysis and unification of existing STOL flying qualities data in a form facilitating inclusion into the new MIL Standard and Handbook, particularly in the area where STOL aircraft differ from CTOL aircraft. The report recommends proposed requirements where sufficient data exist; the report presents discussion where data are sparse or non-existant. (Author)
