Instrumentation for the determination of aircraft performance from dynamic maneuvers

In order to reduce the large amount of flight hours necessary for the determination of performance data of an aircraft, a method has been developed to extract these data from a single dynamic flight maneuver. The paper gives a description of the instrumentation on board of the proto type of a twin turbofan medium size aircraft, which was used...

Evaluation of a method to extract performance data from dynamic maneuvers for a jet transport aircraft

A very accurate measurement system and a data reduction method have been developed to extract performance data from a single dynamic maneuver, in order to reduce the large amoimt of flight hours required for the determination of these data by means of measurements in steady flight. In order to evaluate the applicability of this method to a modem...
