The basic requirements for commercial STOL airplanes leading to the use of high by-pass ratio turbofans and very advanced high-lift systems are briefly reviewed. With the method developed, a rapid evaluation of takeoff and landing performance may be made which permits an easy comparison of different configurations. The method takes into account: safety requirements (speed maneuvering margin, critical engine failure at takeoff, landing field length factor), passenger comfort and pilot limitations due to human factors (maximum rate of descent near the ground and reaction times). A numerical example illustrates the use of simple graphs, which are based on the more important project parameters. (Author)
