Three-Dimensional Flight Envelope for V/STOL Aircraft with Multiple Flight Modes
Aerospace, 2022 Vertical or short take-off and landing (V/STOL) aircraft generally have three flight modes, namely, vertical take-off and landing (VTOL), conversion, and cruise, according to the variable angle of propulsion direction to the fuselage axis.

Flight Performance Aspects During Military Helicopter Flights
Aerospace Medicine and Human Performance, 2019 INTRODUCTION: A flight is composed of many flight performance aspects. However, not all of these aspects are equally important for the success and safety of a flight. When investigating the influence of a stressor on flight performance, it is important to understand not only which flight performance aspects are important for the success and the safety

Resolution of a paradox: Hummingbird flight at high elevation does not come without a cost [PDF]
, 2004 Flight at high elevation is energetically demanding because of parallel reductions in air density and oxygen availability. The hovering flight of hummingbirds is one of the most energetically expensive forms of animal locomotion, but hummingbirds are ...
