The design of VTOL aircraft involves infinitely more problems than does the conventional airplane. Although experience with conventional subsonic craft provides some criteria, the VTOL characteristics require new concepts to determine configuration, payload, range, capability, and reliability. This paper reviews experience and research up to this time and describes design problems together with possible solutions.
