Short Take‐off and Landing for High Speed Aircraft: The way to 2,000 ft. operations is open through the use of thrust deflection, sophisticated flap systems, and perhaps reaction controls

Abstract

THE shortened runway has become an order of the day. Commercial operators want to offer jet service to communities with small airports. Military services seek to use small, unprepared fields—or no fields at all, just clearings.
