Additional Event Information & Acknowledgement of Industry Sponsor(s):

The USAF Test Pilot School recently completed an extensive spin test of the DG-1000S to evaluate its suitability for stall, departure, spin and spin-recovery test training. Please join us and

  • Learn more about the important human factors & critical decision making in aviation.
  • Learn about emergency bailout planning factors and considerations
  • Learn about coping with the emergence of unexpected spin modes, competing considerations between structural loads and recoverability when designing a build-up approach and the potential dangers of dismissiveness when testing certified and/or unpowered aircraft.
  • Learn more about the alternative approach to classifying spin modes which are highly/violently oscillatory, highlights unique emergency bailout considerations, underscores the importance test configuration control and offers techniques to maximize the flight test envelope across the dimensions of CG and pitch moment of inertia.
  • Learn more about the DG-1000S and its features
  • Learn more about the career path of an Experimental Test Pilot
  • Learn more about the USAF Test Pilot School
  • Network with the speaker and other aerospace and aviation professionals
