System integration and testing of an airborne telescope like SOFIA is a complex process and needs to be done in three phases: 1. pre-assembling the telescope on ground; 2. integration of the telescope into the aircraft on ground; 3. in-flight commissioning and testing. Due to practical reasons (available time resources, costs) not every item can be finally commissioned and tested under all environmental conditions before flight, and cooperation and joint activities between the aircraft people, the telescope people and the later users is necessary. The paper describes, how the work is shared in the three phases, what experience has been gotten so far and what is planned for the remaining activities.
