WP Leader: Deutsches Zentrum für Luft- und Raumfahrt e.V. (DLR)
This Work Package (WP) has three distinctive objectives:
- Recommend relevant flight procedures and instrumentation to be used for the substantiation of sonic boom levels within future ICAO SARP (Standards And Recommended Practices);
- Specify flight procedures and instrumentation to be used during the flight test campaigns;
- Develop an innovative mean to characterize the atmosphere.
To meet the requirements of these objective, WP4 is structured as follows:
- Task 4.1: Flight procedures
- Subtask 4.1.1: Reference procedures and conditions
- Subtask 4.1.2: Test procedures and conditions
- Task 4.2: Instrumentation
- Subtask 4.2.1: Sound pressure and vibration measurements
- Subtask 4.2.2: Weather measurements
- Subtask 4.2.3: Aircraft trajectory and parameters measurements
- Task 4.3: Synthesis and recommendations
