The determination of AHS practicality was based on evaluating various design concepts in relation to both technical and socio-economic design considerations. The project included the determination of system objectives, the conceptual design of candidate systems to meet these objectives and evaluation of the most promising candidate systems. This final report is presented in three volumes. Volume I contains a summary of the entire report. The detailed analyses are presented in Vols. II and III
