Validation Flight Test of UH-60A for Rotorcraft Systems Integration Simulator (RSIS)

Abstract

The United States Army Aviation Engineering Flight Activity (USAAEFA) conducted flight tests of the UH-60A helicopter for the Aeromechanics Laboratory (AL)of the US Army Aviation Research and Technology Laboratories to obtain data for validation of a simulator. A test program of sixty-nine flights totaling 97.4 tests hours was flown to provide AL with extensive handling qualities data.
