FLIGHT TEST SAFETY WORKSHOP
SETP/SFTE
Wednesday 17 October 2007 - Thursday 18 October 2007
No.4 Hamilton Place, London W1J 7BQ
The purpose of the Safety Workshop is to provide an open forum where test safety issues can be presented, discussed and probed with other members and disciplines of the flight test community.
The theme of the workshop is “Managing Risk for Flight Test”. The technical program will concentrate on Risk Management lessons learned and will focus on risk mitigation associated with every facet of flight testing, to include, but not limited to: planning (sound plan = safe plan), test condition buildup, test conduct, ground support, crew egress systems, use of ground base simulation, etc. Discussion will also include mitigating risks associated with program delays and escalating costs. The scope includes all members of a test team to include supporting facilities. The workshop will highlight the importance of sharing information and learning from our successes and failures.
This is a joint event from the Royal Aeronautical Society, the Society of Experimental Test Pilots, the Society of Flight Test Engineers and Maurice Girard, Senior Test Pilot, Cessna Aircraft Company.
Deadline for submitting paper proposals is the end of this month (contact SETP/SFTE HQs for details), for conference details Email
