After a fully-faired platform propelled by a linear motor was placed in service in the L'Herst tunnel in 1979, it became possible to set up tests to measure the variations of aircraft aerodynamic coefficients near the ground. Two set-ups were made and the preliminary testing campaigns are completed. A number of models were tested. This paper presents the results of the various tests and a comparison between the two set-ups used and traditional wind tunnels.
