Afternoon all,
Our aircraft recently had an 8.33khz radio fitted, and previously hadn't been flown above FL190 since my boss has owned it. As such, I am planning to take it up to FL280 to ensure that everything is working correctly before I fly him on it.
My question is whether there is a special procedure used for 'air test' (for want of the correct phrase) flights that allow you to climb to high altitude for a short period of time and perform?
Many thanks,
OE
