An experiment is described which evaluates the feasibility of using a Coanda wall jet boundary layer removal system for application to VSTOL testing in ground effect. This concept is particularly suited to large scale facilities where the alternatives, such as moving belts, are inadequate in terms of scale and robustness. In addition, the Coanda wall jet provides a significant improvement in the power required to maintain a negligible wall boundary layer.
