Extract

Under the heading “C. of A. Flight Testing” many different subjects could be discussed; most of them, however, and particularly those concerning procedures and basic philosophies, are well understood and need little elaboration: the interest really lies in those items which regularly give trouble and, if I may borrow the current American expression, these “ problem areas ” form the basis of this paper.

In the time available I cannot hope to cover the whole picture and must limit myself generally to the large transport aircraft and, apart from one or two divergencies, to qualitative handling. The paper is my own and I take responsibility for the opinions expressed in it.
