The missing link: how to optimize pressure calibration using the tower flyby methodThe validation of a trailing cone system on a research aircraft using established flight test procedures gave errors which seemed not acceptable for the following calibration experiment....
Airdata measurement and calibration... The memorandum informs readers about tower-flyby, trailing cone, pacer, radar-tracking, and dynamic airdata calibration maneuvers....
Comparison of static pressure from aircraft trailing cone measurements and numerical weather prediction analysis... In this paper we compare static pressure measured by means of a trailing cone (TC) in the undisturbed atmosphere behind two different jet aircraft (Dassault FALCON 20E and Gulfstream 550 “HALO”) at flight levels (FL) from 40 to 450 during ...
Innovative design of long-range linear displacement precision measuring mechanism for airplane trailing cone automatic releasing system AbstractAs a kind of long-range winding system, positioning accuracy of airplane trailing cone automatic releasing system for airspeed calibration relies on linear displacement measurement accuracy of trailing cone automatic releasing process....
