RAPID ASSESSMENT OF AIRCRAFT LANDING SITES,

Abstract

The procedure described in the paper permits rapid survey of entire landing sites by use of any available standard ground vehicle. Specifically, the process is one of selecting a standard vehicle, such as a 2-1/2-ton cargo truck, traversing a potential landing area, and noting the rutting. From the degree of rutting, a direct projection of allowable operations of any aircraft can be readily determined. (Author)
