This report describes a computer program that will model the takeoff and landing performance of aircraft. Models of lift coefficient, drag coefficient, gross thrust, propulsive drag, and fuel within user-provided subroutines are required. The simulated aircraft can be jet or propeller powered, however, thrust must be passed from the user-provided subroutine. The intent of this handbook is to provide a guide to the programmer and operator of this program as well as to document the equations and assumptions used in the program. This program was adapted from the NASA takeoff and landing program documented in NASA Technical Memorandum X.622,333, (1973) (N73-25710). This Air Force version of the program has been made to suit the needs of test and evaluation while the NASA program served as a design tool.
