This report presents the results of Project Have VEST, a limited evaluation of a back up velocity estimate following air data system failure. This test program demonstrated the potential of the VEST algorithm to provide an airspeed estimate using aircraft last known state and flight control computer accelerations and rates. The USAF Test Pilot School (TPS), Class 07A, conducted six flight tests totaling 11.3 hours at Edwards AFB, California, from 9 to 21 Sep 2007. All test objectives were met.
