Basic measurements made in flight with VTOL aircraft to explore new regimes of flight involved and to develop design criteria and operating techniques; exploratory nature of VTOL flight testing calls for special planning with respect to safe methods for conducting flight tests, procedures for demonstrating distinctive characteristics, and suitable recording instrumentation; importance of pilot orientation is stressed.
