METHOD AND DEVICE FOR CARRYING OUT AT LEAST ONE FLIGHT TESTING ON AN AIRCRAFT AND THE USE THEREOF

摘要

The inventive device (1) comprises at least one rudder (2A, 2B, 2n), a control unit (4) for applying a deflexion instruction to the rudder, means (6) for measuring recovery characteristic displaying the evolution of the aircraft movement in the response to said rudder deflexion instruction, means (7) for recording at least one applied deflexion instruction and a corresponding recovery characteristic, a servo-control means (13) for triggering the aircraft in such a way that the recovery characteristic is maintained, wherein the control unit (4) is provided with means (10) for receiving an recovery instruction which makes it possible to obtain a recovery characteristic which is identifiable for at least one aerodynamic effect and means (11) generating the rudder deflexion instruction induced by the recovery instruction.
