Abstract
Recent developments in flying qualities criteria for fixed-wing V/STOL aircraft are reviewed and summarized. The criteria considered are limited to those applicable to hover and low-speed flight (airspeeds less than approximately 35 knots in any direction). Conclusions and recommendations resulting from development programs including equivalent system analyses and control/display system tradeoffs are presented. Results of both manned, ground-based simulations, and in-flight investigations are included. Comparisons with the existing V/STOL Flying Qualities Specification, MIL-F-83300, and selected full-scale data are made. Ongoing and future programs in the area are discussed.
