Griffith's proposal to achieve vertical take-off and landing at the usual attitude demands sea-level thrust considerably greater than the weight and continuously rotatable through 90 deg. A study of the steady states of ...

Information was required on the probable effect on lateral behaviour of a change from conventional to tailless types. The essential features of a tailless design are represented by large reductions in the absolute values ...

The response of a fast moving aeroplane to a lateral gust, and to applied rolling and yawing moments, is examined by means of the differential analyser, taking a range of values of the principal lateral stability parameters, ...
