Abstract
Poultry in Motion Aerospace presents the Daedalus, an airport adaptive Super Short Take-off and Landing (STOL) transport. The 2003/2004 AIAA undergraduate design competition Request for Proposal (RFP) calls for an airport adaptive STOL transport with a secondary role in the Civil Reserve Air Fleet (CRAF). Poultry in Motion?s answer to the AIAA RFP, Daedalus, consists of a high wing, T-tail configuration, which employs upper surface blowing and a circulation control wing. Features tailored for the airport adaptive transport (AAT) requirement include a stair door, an enlarged rear cargo door with loading ramp, and robust landing gear. A special avionics package facilitates the simultaneous non-interfering (SNI) approach. This report documents progress thus far.
