Detail design features of a short takeoff and landing commercial aircraft are presented. The design of the structures and systems is conventional in most respects. The need to provide a long stroke undercarriage for STOL operations incurred a large weight penalty. The design has demonstrated an inability to cope with engine failure and gusting cross wind conditions. The effect of the STOL requirement on the overall airframe construction is analyzed. (Author)
