Flight Test Techniques

Abstract

The Flight Mechanics Panel believes that it is vitally important that the flight test community meet regularly so that new techniques for flight test, instrumentation and data analysis can be disseminated to ensure that safe, efficient and timely testing is accomplished. The number of new systems being submitted for airborne trials and testing is continuously increasingly.The major development and test challenge common to most current and future aircraft is that of avionic/software subsystems development and integration. New systems and application include programmable signal process radars, integrated flight, fire and propulsion systems, multifunction pilot displays, and other on-board software-intensive systems. The acquisition and processing of large quantities of avionics multiple data is a challenge that must be met. Keywords: Flight tests; Flight stimulation; Avionics; Computer systems programs; Data processing; Cost engineering.
