Preliminary configuration definition of a safe, has evolved as system trade studies affordable vehicle are conducted, and integrated into the design. This technical paper will review the CTR2000 configuration development, and system trade studies of emergency power requirement, cabin seat configuration, and engine sizing for Category A takeoff and landing capability.}, keywords = {10.
