The author presents activities of the first twelve months, ending 1 November 1955, of the service test, including objectives and programmed evaluations. Equipment being tested, training considerations and specific tests performed are described. The Allison YT-56-A3 engine and Aeroproducts Turbine Propeller combination installed on a CV 340 aircraft has been the primary test configuration during the period reported, thus the accumulated data presented mainly concerns the performance of this power plant.
