Analytical engineering methods are developed for use in predicting the static and dynamic stability and control derivatives and force and moment coefficients of lift-jet, lift-fan, and vectored thrust V/STOL aircraft in the hover and transition flight regimes. The aircraft configurations studies have a conventional wing, fuselage and empennage. The prediction methods are suitable for use by design personnel during the preliminary design and evaluation of V/STOL aircraft of the type previously mentioned. Details and listings of the computer programs associated with the prediction methods are given in the volume. (Author)
