From: tek@CS.UCLA.EDU The Harrier can take off STOL or VTOL. Can anyone tell me what are the maximum take-off weights for the different types of take off ? Aside from reduced maximum take-off weight are there additional ordnance restrictions for VTOL take-off? (perhaps safety related?) Under maximum weight VTOL take-off, how much fuel is consumed taking off and transitioning to horizontal flight? In particular, I am interested in information about the UK Sea Harrier FRS.1 version, but information about other variants is welcome also. -ted Ted Kim Internet: tek@penzance.cs.ucla.edu UCLA Computer Science Department UUCP: ...!{uunet|ucbvax}!cs.ucla.edu!tek 3804C Boelter Hall Phone: (213)206-8696 Los Angeles, CA 90024 FAX: (213)825-2273
