The use of correlated data in airplane development is discussed. Areas of interest include initial airworthiness of an aircraft, low-speed configuration optimization, and high-speed configuration optimization. Data from wind tunnel tests are shown to be significant when applied to guarantee compliance, which includes fuel consumption, airspeeds, and takeoff and landing performance. The use of correlation in achieving FAA certification is also discussed.
