Structural Tests of Air Aircraft Window Assembly Equipped with Smoke Evacuation Valve

Abstract

This report presents the results of three tests performed on a window and window frame of a Boeing 707. The purpose of the test, conducted at the Federal Aviation Administration Technical Center, was to determine the maximum moment the window could withstand before becoming dislodged from its frame due to the failure of the window retention clips. The window assembly was modified to fit into a load machine. The loads were measured with a load cell and recorded on a Honeywell Test Management System. (KR)
