Nature and magnitude of aerodynamic interference effects which arise with jet and fan-lift schemes for V/STOL aircraft; emphasis is on adverse flows which can be induced around airframe by jet (or fan) efflux during VTOL operation near ground and during aircraft transition to and from purely wing-borne flight; discussion concentrates on understanding and analysis of major aerodynamic features, rather than on optimization of specific aircraft layouts, with illustrations from Royal Aircraft Establishment research work; aerodynamic problems needing further study are indicated.
