Youve invested time, effort, and money in building your dream airplane. Youve learned many new things such as riveting, welding, fabric, wiring, instruments, avionics and construction in composites. So now what?

Its time to learn a whole new discipline: flight testing. The new Flight Testing Homebuilt Aircraft, an updated and improved version of the 1992 edition, is designed to give you the techniques and tools to help you flight test your creation.

Specifically it will help you:
• Develop a useable envelope as safely and efficiently as possible.
• Define your aircrafts limitations.
• Identify and fix the problems that often crop up in even well proven designs.
• Learn the characteristics of your airplane so you can get the most out of it.
