V/STOL instrument approach with present-day displays and guidance systems requires about 5 min at low speeds, but time could be cut to 1 1/2 to 2 min if displays and guidance systems were improved; conversion process should be simplified by interconnecting as many operations as possible with one control; adequate vectoring for lifting system, attitude stabilization to prevent excessive wandering, and automatic glide-path control for approaches over 6° will probably be required also.
