Veridian Tests 728JET FCS
Fairchild Dornier has wrapped an initial round of test flights
of the fly-by-wire flight control system for the 728JET using
a Veridian Flight Research Group Learjet. A series of 10 test
flights was made at Veridian's facility in Buffalo, New York earlier
this year with 728JET aerodynamics and flight control parameters
loaded into the Lear's computers to replicate the stability and
control characteristics of the new airliner.
