A preliminary flight test was conducted on the research airplane Dornier Do228-200 that is being modified for use as an in-flight simulator by the National Aerospace Lab (NAL). The basic performance of the aircraft was evaluated by the flight test. Glide path angles were examined with various parameters such as velocity, altitude, and power. The flight test results were compared with those of a mathematical model based on the Dornier GmbH wind tunnel test data. Since an onboard data acquisition system is under development and only primitive measurement is available, accuracy of the flight test is limited. This flight test, however, has verified the mathematical model to some extent, and has given useful data for future flight tests.
