Gould, D.G. Institution National Research Council Canada, National Aeronautical Establishment Date 1974-01-31 Abstract The influence of wind on the low speed approach and landing considerations for V/STOL aircraft poses new problems which, although neglected for conventional aircraft, may require specific solutions for these new designs. A novel method to allow for significant along-track wind effects, including shears, is proposed whereby the approach geometry relative to the earth is modified according to the ambient wind condition.
