This report presents the results of test efforts to calibrate F-16D USAF serial number 87-0391 Pitot-static system (Project Pace Maker). The objectives of this project were to determine the calibration of the test aircraft with a flight test noseboom and to calibrate the trailing cone system. The USAF Test Pilot School, Class 09B, conducted eight sorties in an F-16D Block 40 aircraft totaling 13.4 hours at Edwards AFB, CA from 8 March to 31 March 2010. The temperature probe recovery factor for the test aircraft was not determined. All other test objectives were met.
