The initial results of a test program conducted on an ejector-augmented-lift STOVL aircraft design in the NASA-Ames 40-by-80-Foot Wind Tunnel has established the efficient performance of this full-scale aircraft realization of the propulsion-system configuration. It has also been noted that the generation of larger lift-augmentation ratios in this form than in component tests. In addition, it is found that configurations possessing thrust/weight ratios and wing loadings representative of current practice could, when outfitted with the present propulsion scheme, produce adequate level-flight acceleration through transition from VTOL hover to wingborne flight.
