FLIGHT TEST SOFTWARE
To enable efficient flight testing, AeroTEC designed custom software for organizing and managing flight test programs. Our test organizer and management (TOM) program is easily customized to any project, and manages test plans, instrumentation, equipment, and documents required from initial test planning through test execution.
TOM’s powerful flight planning module categorizes and logically organizes test conditions to allow efficient flight sequencing. Airplane configuration, fuel burn, and weight and balance are all incorporated to generate an accurate plan and ensure proper test. Configuration and sequence changes are simple and quick, enabling changes minutes before takeoff without costly delays. Automatically generated paperwork ensures flight crews have all the required test information on a few short pages.
