Various factors affecting aircraft parameter identification are examined. A review of the preparation/flight test phases of this research program is presented. The Beaver aircraft digital simulation program, aircraft flight test instrumentation, and test data processing are described. Input signal optimization techniques are discussed and signals optimized using four different methods are presented. Production of a tape which automatically applied the optimized input signals in flight is described. The flight test phase consisted of 14 flights and resulted in useful data for 110 individual maneuvers. Preliminary identification results from representative maneuvers are given.
