Dynamic Tests of V/STOL Transport Models
This paper presents a summary of results obtained in dynamic tests of free-flight models of various configurations suitable for V/STOL transport aircraft at the NASA Langley Research Center. The configurations covered will be the tilt-wing propeller-driven type as represented by the XC-142A tri-service transport, the fan-in-wing type as represented by the XV-5A research airplane, and the jet-lift type as represented by the Dornier 00-31 transport. The test techniques themselves are not described in this paper since they have been described in detail previously in references 1 and 2.
