The procedures in this Test Operations Procedure (TOP) describe a method for in-flight simulation of environments for small fixed wing aircraft, manned or unmanned. The test method simulates the temperature and humidity environment that the aircraft will experience in-flight, both the ascent to altitude and low temperature environment and the descent into a warm moist environment. Altitude is simulated by adjusting the airflow across the aircraft to provide an equivalent mass flow rate that the aircraft would be exposed to at altitude. This test method will be utilized when the size of the aircraft exceeds the available altitude chamber size.
