This volume in the AGARD Flight Test Techniques Series deals with the practical aspects of planning, conducting and reporting on developmental airdrop tests made from cargo transport type aircraft. Typical cargo aircraft Aerial Delivery systems, parachute extraction systems and special devices and rigging techniques are described in detail. Typical instrumentation systems for obtaining aircraft and parachute systems force data are also described and piloting techniques for various airdrop methods are briefly discussed. The author also uses a scenario of a typical parachute Tow Test to demonstrate the application of these techniques and the use of challenge and response checklists among the flight crewmembers. Finally the use of reports is discussed and appendices are included with many useful charts and calculations that are readily applicable in research and development airdrop testing.
