A NASA-defined technology program investigating integrated flight/propulsion control system design for vertical and short takeoff and landing (V/STOL) aircraft is outlined, and initial fixed-base simulation experiments for two V/STOL aircraft are covered. It is shown that transition performance can be characterized by the minimum climb or level-flight acceleration that can be achieved. Level-1 flying qualities can be achieved for deceleration to hover in instrument conditions, and for shore-based and shipboard landing when attitude and velocity stabilization and command augmentation modes are provided. Level-1 and Level-2 flying qualities can be expected when only attitude command is provided. During vertical landing aboard a destroyer in heavy seas, substantial bleed flow rates are reported for a control arrangement employing reaction control for the pitch, roll, and yaw axes. Peak bleed flows can be reduced for a control arrangement using lateral-thrust transfer for roll control.
