            A STOL is an aircraft able to make Short Take Off and Landing.
              Habitually, these devices are capable as VTOL take off and land on summary runways and are very adapted for mountain flight.

       MAIN   STOL  with  FSX  and  FS2004  

            They are frequently characterized by fixed landing gear ( weight ) and tail with fins in the upper position ( sometimes like T ) to facilitate the lifting and short takeoffs.
               All devices below exist as free addon version that you will find addresses with direct links in the Club-FS addon :

                    " Oldies "

                    - Antonov 14 :
A small russian twin-engine a little bit " archaic " but terribly effective for take off and landing less than 50 Mn. Ceiling 18 000 feet

Antonov 14

                - Short : Early versions in years 40 of this twin engines STOL with nose up and  tailwheel.


                Mono turbo  :

                    - Pilatus PC 6 : This super powered aircraft with 6 / 7 places can take off from a football field at an altitude of 9 000 feet !!!
                                             It's a " rustic" plane but very effective.  Exceptional speed climb. Ceiling : More than 28 000 feet.
  
Pilatus PC6


                    - Pilatus PC 12 : The modern version and "comfortable" in 6 / 7 places for short-haul routes in the mountains. Runway  300 meters = 1 000 feet

Pilatus PC12


                        - Cessna 208B Caravan in its Carrier version : With flaps extended allowing landings without tail hook .....
                                                                    To increase flaps and their inclination, see : FS Book on line  

Caravan Carrier


                    - CAP 750 XL: The " Pacific Aero " is a small lightweight STOL capacity very efficient.


                         Bi-turbo engines :

This wonderful aircraft is found in all the right moves ..... This is the latest free addon version 400 with a file dhc69.air

Twin Ott Skybus

                 - Britten Norman Islander : STOL One of the most effective but a very rudimentary free addon

Britten Norman

               - Dornier 228 : A standard for islands and mountains

Dornier 228


               - Dornier  328
  : A STOL medium range and medium capacity

Dornier 228


                - Short 360 : A larger STOL ability, pleasant ( " Panel " to improve ) Other versions : Short 330 and Short Sherpa
                                                To increase panels, see :  FS Book on line  

Short 360

                        - Airbus Industries A 400 M : A STOL with large capacity, very handy and very pleasant ( " Panel " to improve : View  FS Book online  )
                                        Or how send 30 tons in the air from any land within 600 meters and receive them on summary land, 5000 km away, see 12 000 km further if                                                 necessary because it can be refueled.....
                                                                                  
Airbus A400 M


                    Bi-reactors :

                       
The powered by jet engines, because their high speed evolution, is not particularly suitable for STOL performance, but may be noted :

                         - Antonov 72 : It is an exception with the engines on the wings ( As  Lockheed Martin Seamaster ). Runway 1 200 feet = 400 m

Antonov 72


                        - Antonov 148 : It is the successor of the Antonov 72 with greater capacity. Runway  1 500 feet = 500 m.

Antonov 148

                        - Dornier 328 Jet: A jet almost STOL medium capacity.


  TAKE-OFF  

                    With the flaps to the max and many trim positive STOL distances for takeoff  are similar to those of a  football field .......
                    Climbing angles, tight capacity and speed climb due to high lift coefficient rates are surprising
                    See : FS Book on line  


  LANDING  

                   The STOL can make " droped " landings "  with incidence angles in the final relatively high ( 5 to 15 ° )
