On 26th September 2017, Airbus test flight its first flight of the Airbus 340-300- Laminar flow BLADE test demonstrator aircraft (A340-300 MSN001)… In which the aircraft wings was modified for the EU sponsored clean sky project.. In which BLADE- Breakthrough Laminar Aircraft Demonstrator in Europe…… in which to assess to minimised the aircraft carbon dioxide emissions down to more of five percent also to bringing up more than fifty percent reduction of wing friction… in which first time introduction is the modifications of the wings primary structure in which with the integration with transonic laminar wing profile while still trying to retains its primary design characterises..

A340-300-MSN 001– known as the first test bed for the A340-300 series also now as the Flight Lab took from Tarbes Aerodrome in southern France at eleven in the local time in the morning in making  several trial flights over a duration of  three hours and thirty eight minutes in which they were successful, in which landed smoothly on Airbus Facilities in Toulouse Blagnac Airport…… in this exercise was to measure the tolerances, imperfections in various conditions and environments  that may arise to correction in the development learning process for the sustain the Laminar designs.. in which further flight testing is required to in the months ahead in which required least of one hundred and fifty hours..

As part of the testing it’s installation on the outside of the aircraft is retrofitted inside with complex nerves of specialised flight testing instrumentations stations also working among with an European partnership with extensive experience flight test crew.. Whom can fly the aircraft at Mach in a reasonable flying altitude… among many of the installation were camera pods, also infrared cameras that was installed on the tip of the wings fins..

As to the leading up to the Paris Air Show 2017, Boeing will be show casing there family of Aircraft commercial, space and Defense… as part of the showcasing their products between 23 June Friday – 26 June Monday 2017, in Paris,  Paris Le Bourget Exhibition Centre, Le Bourget, France …. As they show case their products there’s traditionally demonstration flights around the Exhibition areas …..As part of the demonstration flights that been arrange this is one aspects of flight expected during the as from this flown over the Washington State earlier this month, of its newest sisters of Boeing 737-Max 9 also Boeing 787-10 Dreamliner series… as Boeing Test Pilots also with its team of Chase Aircraft’s, Helicopter flew in formation together in planned flight path..

The footage was film by Airborne films, flown by Boeing Test Pilots Craig Bomben, Tim Berg, and Mike Bryan also Ed Wilson……

#BOEING #B737MAX | Chilling out for certification for Flight testing in the Siberian winters..

As part of the testing processes for certification of a new aircraft also to test to see if any given any changes that needed to modify before it’s certified for the aircraft production and ordering for any new clients..  One method is for Boeing also Airbus uses is call the cold testing… Taking the Boeing 737Max Aircraft into unfamiliar environments, in where this case one of the most coldest regions on Earth, winter bounded Russia in where a cup of hot water when thrown in mid-air automatically turns to snow, in which is so cold that your hair, will freeze on an instant faster than instant noodles..

As the testing team, was testing the aircraft in those beyond minus forty degrees Celsius, mostly everything of any liquids was removed, also the aircraft Boeing 737Max is powered down for the night over the till the Siberian morning came in till they have to resupply the B737Max systems thermally warm supplied fuel into its tanks from the heater Trucks , also any liquid based systems quickly, also this gave to chance to modified any quality assurances systems that may check off previously, once refueled, resupplied it was ready to fly into its next certification programme to assure customers reassurances that the Aircraft is built for to survive  this type of harsh environments that’s under taking..

#AIRBUS #A350-1000 | the second testing of #MSN059 – Dynamic Ground testing..

Just recently “Airbus” did a ground dynamic testing…  On a newly constructed “Airbus 350-1000″, F-WML 0059- MSN0059  in which the initial testing in the series in which had its maiden flight on the 24th November 2016, in which the first testing was done on for its certification process…  in this the first A350-1000 (MSN059) was used in the process of ground vibration testing.. in which to measure, data analysis the aircraft Dynamic behaviour in which the physical dynamic testing demonstrates the in between the theoretical model versa the physical model on various given intense situations of flight environments, manoeuvring, flying into a gale force winds during various situations of take-off and landing in which this certification process takes up nine days in which the previous version the A350-900… however with new refined  testing techniques  the certification process takes up two days in which a Multifunction Commercial aircraft team from different domains  was set up to reduce the time of  certification process for the airworthiness Authorities……

In which three testing Airbus 350-1000 are built during the first test flight Airbus 350-1000 (MSN059) it had all the testing it was design to test the engine and flight systems, the following second test Airbus 350-1000 (MSN060) in which is testing for the Aircraft wiring, electrical systems, in which the third testing Airbus 350-1000 (MSN065) is testing for the cabined pressure equipment, also interior..

The Airbus 350-1000 series have a capability range of 7,950 nautical miles in which is designed for high efficiency, performance also highest degree of passenger comfort to three classes accommodating economy premium, first and business classes, also its build on top of its successful design heritage the Airbus 350-900 series… In which the dual engines are of Rolls Royce Trent XWB-97 turboprop engines… once verification certification of the Airbus 350-1000 have been finalized it’ll begin manufacturing inwardly within the second half year of 2017 with pre-orders..
