01            REPORT TO THE CONGRESS


                                                                           LM101767

              BY THE COMPTROLLER GENERAL

              OF THE UNITED STATES







              Federal Short Takeoff And

              Landing Transport Programs--

              Status And Needs

              Department of Transportation
              National Aeronautics arrd Space Administration
              Department of Defense

              The 1971 civil aviation research and develop-
              ment policy study concluded that a new
              short-haul air transportation system employ-
              ing short takeoff and landing aircraft was
              needed.
              The multiagency effort to define elements for
              the new system was discontinued in 1974.
              Although several agencies are continuing to
              develop short takeoff and landing aircraft
              technology, the Department of Transporta-
              tion is supporting continued improvement of
              rail transportation and better use of existing
              air transportation facilities as preferred solu-
              tions to short-hau; transportation proL 'ems.

              The Congress and the agencies involved need
              to reassess the needs and priorities for short-
              haul transportation systems based on market
              conditions.
