The document presents an overview of the four Technical Planning Objectives (TPO) and supporting data for each. These are extracted from the technical plan of the Air Force Flight Dynamics Laboratory (AFFDL). Information is largely based on AFFDL fiscal 1980 technology plan omitting specific funding and timing information of an 'Official Use Only' nature. Technical objectives are described for the technical areas of Structural Mechanics, Vehicle Equipment/Subsystems, Flight Control and Aeromechanics. Points of contact for more information in each of the areas are identified. (Author)
