A sixteen-week course that covers the core of performance and flying qualities flight testing. The academics are done coincidentally with the year-long Professional Course students. Training includes 38 hours of flight time in twelve types of light aircraft. Both military specifications and civil certification requirements are stressed for a complete flight test education.
The course is taught once each year always starting in late June. The course is comprised of several discrete modules (Performance I & II and Flying Qualities I & II), which allows the student the flexibility to spread the fifteen-week course over two or more years, if required. During the performance and flying qualities modules, LAFTC students will attend academic classes with NTPS’ Professional Course students. At the end of the course the student will perform a comprehensive final project on a single aircraft with a formal written and oral report on their findings.
This course is approved for fifteen credit hours towards a Master of Flight Technology degree program from the National Flight Test Institute and has been approved by the German civil aviation authority (LBA) for a Class 2 (TB-2) test pilot license.
