Flight Testing Lab

What it is about

You will learn the basics of flight test technology using small propeller aircraft as an example. The module covers both performance and flight characteristics. In the end you will be able to perform qualitative and quantitative assessments of an aircraft in these areas.

What you will be able to do

• Basic qualitative assessment of performance and flight characteristics
• Basic quantitative assessment of performance and flight characteristics
• Planning and execution of simple flight tests
• Analysis and presentation of test results

What the module consists of

• Praktikumpractical test planning and execution on a small propeller aircraft or realistically simulated simulator
• Auswertung/PräsentationWritten analysis of the test results and their presentation

Teaching method

• Teamarbeitfor conducting the tests and collaboration in the practical
• Eigenstudiumfor preparation and analysis of the tests
• theoretische & praktische Versuchsplanungfor preparation and execution of measurements
• Durchführung und Auswertungfor obtaining and interpreting measurement results
