Free flight

Free flight

  • 1 Free flight under tension

    to simulate free flight, so the couplings can be studied between the aircraft or control surface motions and aerodynamics (that is, the loads of the air in motion on the surface of the aircraft)... In short, Sacso allows us to study flight mechanics under wind tunnel experimental conditions: the model can have a free dynamic behavior and all the flight parameters can be known or imposed at will
  • 2 Is there a pilot on board the plane?

    The 4D trajectory contracts are negotiated between the airplane and the ground segment, they provide flight trajectories free of any conflict. The aircraft must remain in" a freedom zone" or" free flight zone" evolving in the pre- programmed 4D trajectory, or request a new contract if it can not respect this constraint
