APPLICATIONS OF ADVANCED V/STOL AIRCRAFT CONCEPTS TO CIVIL UTILITY MISSIONS. VOLUME 2: APPENDICES

The linear performance definition curves for the lift fan aircraft, tilt rotor aircraft, and advanced helicopter are given. The computer program written to perform the mission analysis for this study is also documented, and examples of its use are shown. Methods used to derive the performance coefficients for use in the mission analysis of the lift fan aircraft are described.
