Lines: 21 A little while ago I asked if anybody were interested in why and how we at Dryden instrument our research aircraft. In the face of an overwhelming demand that I tell you about this (hey, almost a dozen people said "sure, why not?" :-) ) I'm putting together a brief account. I'll post this to sci.aeronautics and rec.aviation. I think that this will assure the best distribution. If I'm wrong, I'm entirely certain that someone will point that out. (Flight suits are Nomex for good reason!) The subject line for all portions will be "Research Aircraft Instrumentation ..." to make it easy to avoid. If this works out well, I'll then post a similiar series on how to plan a flight test program. -- Mary Shafer shafer@elxsi.dfrf.nasa.gov ames!elxsi.dfrf.nasa.gov!shafer NASA Ames-Dryden Flight Research Facility, Edwards, CA Of course I don't speak for NASA
