Cargo and wheeled vehicles could be loaded into the wide fuselage via a built-in tail ramp. Although the YC-14 never went into production, its two prototypes, built in 1976, introduced significant technological breakthroughs, most notably an upper-surface-blowing (USB) design for high aerodynamic lift. The achievements of the YC-14 contributed in a significant way to advance studies of STOL technology.BI22422 (fa104549)Maximum size:5998px × 4798px (~82 MB)19.9in × 15.9in (300dpi)License type:Rights ManagedKeywords:1970s-airplanes-clear skies-copy space-day-deserts-dust-exteriors-full body views-ground shots-historic production status-jets-landing-military-military livery-monoplanes-muted colors-photos-prototypes-right front views-runways-silver color-sunshine-takeoffs-taxiing-text-transports-unpainted-unpaved ground-YC-14Related Photo/Videos:View All
