Preliminary Survey of Potential STOL Terminal Area Operational Requirements

Abstract

A preliminary survey of potential operational requirements for STOL in the terminal area was made. The presentation of the survey is in three sections. The first section presents the motivation for the survey. The second section discusses the markets in which STOL may be found viable. This discussion is limited to those aspects which are necessary to determine the effects of these markets on shaping future STOL operations. The final section consists of a description of terminal area operations as they currently exist, of possible operational changes that may occur exclusive of the introduction of STOL, and then of potential operational requirements of STOL in the terminal area.
