Flight trials with a Tornado aircraft to produce full-scale experimental data for stores carriage loads, release trajectories and flow surveys are described. The instrumentation carried by the aircraft is introduced and the facilities for analysing the resulting data outlined. Some examples from flow surveys are presented. Keywords: Flight testing, Aerodynamics, Aircraft external stores, Great Britain.
