short takeoff and landing aircraft

You can come sit.

I mean, we have the STOL kits on there.

You'll see the big wheels.

We have the AP3.

I put on the vortex generators.

Between the Cleveland brakes and the VGs, I had myself a STOL aircraft.

There were VTs on the horizontal tail? They must have been on the underside? Yeah, they were, and on the vertical tail on both

sides.

Mm-hmm.

Um, STOL on average will give you probably more payload and range, but you're still dependent on having some kind of unprepared strip, whereas a VTOL you can really get in pretty much anywhere.

So, so these things, I think that, you know, they're-- I wouldn't say they suddenly replace all helicopters.

They clearly don't, nor do they replace some of the very small, more attritable drones.

Yeah

... there's a STOL event at Popham.

I, um-

I think it, I think it be- begins on Friday at lunchtime.

The big competition day is Saturday.

Mm-hmm.

And then they're having a day on Sunday, uh, for people interested in STOL.

I think it's like a experienced STOL people will talk to people who are interested in the sport.
