Technical Evaluation Report of the Flight Mechanics Panel Symposium on Flight in Adverse Environmental Conditions

Abstract

In May 1989 the Flight Mechanics Panel of AGARD organized a Symposium on Flight in Adverse Environmental Conditions (the Conference Proceedings of this Symposium are published as AGARD CP 470). Four aspects of adverse environmental conditions of interest to the flight mechanics specialists were addressed by this symposium: atmospheric disturbances, reduced visibility, icing and electromagnetic disturbances. All four of these can seriously affect flight safety, comfort and operational capability. The topic was and still is considered to be particularly emphasis on the ability of today's and tomorrow's aircraft to fly safely and effectively in the types of adverse conditions dealt with in this symposium. This Advisory Report has been prepared at the request of the Flight Mechanics Panel to evaluate the extent to which the objectives of the symposium were met, and to make recommendations for future activities in this area. NATO furnished. (rrh)
