Flight Test Scheduling

Flight test scheduling is a weather problem with an engineering dependency. Plan both, and keep a reserve.

7 of 10Method note

Overview

  • Sequence the tests so that a weather-limited day still allows progress on the bench-dependent items.
  • Book more windows than the plan requires; the constraining factor is usually consecutive suitable days.
  • Each flight test has a stated purpose and a record; a flight with no question attached is a cost, not a test.
  • Airspace, site access and observer arrangements are on the critical path before the aircraft is.
