DLR - Flight Experiments

Flight Experiments

The DLR Facility Flight Experiments provides support to internal and external customers during planning and operational phases of flight test. Those flight experiments either use the aircraft as a carrier platform for scientific equipment or as a research object itself in aeronautical research. To fulfill such tasks, DLR Flight Experiments operates the largest fleet of civil research aeroplanes and helicopters in Europe. In times of tight budgets, besides competent and safe conduction of flight test, the efficiency of operation has grown in importance, too.
