Vertical Take-Off and Landing (VTOL)


Inside This Section:


VTOL is short for Vertical Take-Off and Landing. This term refers to any fixed-wing aircraft that, in short, does not require a runway. In order for a fixed-wing aircraft to achieve this, it demands an incredible amount of power and stability. The technology can be seen in some military aircraft, including the Bell Boeing V-22 Osprey.

VTOL prototypes under development include:

  • The Moller M400 Skycar , by Moller International
  • The X-Hawk , by Urban Aeronautics
