Aspects of VTOL flying qualities are discussed, particularly in approach and use of variable stability aircraft in flying qualities research; there are two analytical tools which are urgently needed, namely, adequate but tractable analytical representation of VTOL dynamics in transition, and methods for identifying characteristics of VTOL aircraft as obtained in flight; analytical representation of VTOL characteristics is needed to understand and interpret flying qualities data; identification methods are needed to determine characteristics of research, prototype and operational VTOL aircraft.
