Engineering flight tests were conducted to evaluate the performance and flying qualities of the CV-2B airplane, with special emphasis on takeoff and landing performance in the short takeoff and landing (STOL) configuration. Tests were conducted at test sites in Bakersfield, Edwards, Bishop, Eldorado County Airport, and Coyote Flats, California. The program consisted of 120 hours of flight testing and was accomplished during the period 25 August 1963 through 20 January 1964. The test airplane (U.S. Army S/N 62-4175) was modified from a CV2 to a CV-2B by the incorporation of the following major changes: (a) STOL operation capabilities were increased from 26,000 to 28,500 pounds; and (b) Reverse pitch propellers were installed.
