Paper covers unique features and different modes of operation of aircraft which result in new operating problems; high power required in hovering flight is one of basic characteristics leading to new operating problems; other characteristics of aircraft in hovering and transition flight are vertical slipstream for hovering flight, special provisions made for performing conversion from hovering to cruise configuration, and inherent deficiencies in aerodynamic stability and control in hovering and low speed flight.
