The Quiet Short-Haul Research Aircraft (QSRA), designed to expand the technology base of the upper-surface blowing propulsive-lift principle in order to establish criteria for the U.S. aircraft industry and for advanced STOL aircraft, is considered. The aircraft, which includes a three-axis, single channel, limited authority series type stability augmentation system, and a high-speed data system is described. Also discussed are STOL and acoustic performance, and handling qualities, particularly thrust effects. The QSRA has demonstrated its ability, even with the critical engine inoperative, to approach at 66 knots (wing loading of 83 lb/sq ft) and on a 9 degree glidepath; to maneuver in a 700-ft radius turn, and to land in an FAA field length of 1450 ft (over a 35-ft obstacle).
