Recommended Practice: When Flight Modelling Is Used to Reduce Flight Testing Supporting Aircraft Certification

€73.00

Details

This document outlines a set of recommended practices (six tasks) for an applicant to accomplish when flight modelling is being developed, proposed and used to reduce flight testing relative to established aircraft certification practices. The specific certification requirements considered when these recommendations were developed include aircraft performance and handling qualities, static loads and aeroelastic stability. However, the recommended tasks may also be applicable when showing compliance to other requirements. The set of tasks provides a framework for organizing information used to determine whether or not a particular analysis method is appropriate for supporting a compliance showing in a particular application. Hypothetical examples of applying these tasks to specific certification applications are provided. However, this document does not endorse specific analysis methods and processes for showing compliance to specific requirements nor prescribe how analysis methods are utilized. It remains the responsibility of the applicant and regulatory authority to determine whether a given analysis method is appropriate for a given compliance showing. The only recommendation of this document is that the six tasks be addressed in a manner appropriate to the particular showing of compliance.
