Flight Testing

Consulting covers fixed wing aircraft flight testing for performance, stability and control, avionics and systems tests. Flight test areas include Avionics Systems Flight Testing, Aircraft Certification, Electro-Optical Systems, Digital Flight Control System Testing, Store Certification, as well as Handling Qualities evaluation using closed-loop tasks.

Publically available military specifications documents are extensively used (MIL-F-8785C, MIL-HDBK-1797, MIL-HDBK-244D, MIL-HDBK-1763, MIL-STD-3009, MIL-HDBK-516A, etc).

Special flight test consulting areas are the following:

  1. Testing in a Flight Simulation Environment: Flight simulation is used as a flight test tool for new concept designs, flight control system tests or for post-flight recreation and analysis. Flight simulation is also used in order to optimize the flight test planning, train and prepare the flight and ground crews for special tests.

  2. Advanced Data Reduction: In-house built data reduction routines cover and further expand all the classical and modern data reduction methods providing the highest degree of achievable accuracy.
