Abstract:This report on the RTOL (Reduced Take-off and Landing) system is one of three six-week studies commissioned by the FAA V/STOL Special Projects Office to gather information pursuant to the preparation of a long-range, short-haul air transportation program plan. The RTOL system is proposed as a pragmatic approach to increasing air system capacity, reducing system congestion and improving ground access. Basically, it entails the shifting of most non-connecting, short-haul air travel from saturated hub airports (La Guardia, O'Hare, etc.) to existing but under-utilized metropolitan airports (RTOL ports), using quiet RTOL aircraft. This report defines th eRTOL concept and investigates its feasibility and potential.
