The results of an in-flight simulation program undertaken to study the problems of landing a representative STOL transport in the presence of adverse ground effects are presented. Landings were performed with variations in ground effect magnitude, ground effect lag, and thrust response. Other variations covered the effects of augmented lift response, SAS-failures, turbulence, segmented approach, and flare warning. The basic STOL airplane required coordinated use of both stick and throttle for consistently acceptable landings, and the presence of adverse ground effects made the task significantly more difficult. Ground effect lag and good engine response gave noticeable improvement, as did augmented lift response.
