STOL Tactical Aircraft Investigation. Volume 2. Part 1. Aerodynamic Technology: Design Compendium, Vectored Thrust/Mechanical Flaps

Abstract

The report presents methods for predicting the performance determining aerodynamic characteristics and the stability derivatives of transport-type configurations employing the vectored-thrust mechanical-flap high-lift concept. These methods are suitable for preliminary design. They have been automated in a FORTRAN 4 computer program, for which a users' manual and listing are included in this document.
