Now that it's built, how well will it fly? Flight Testing Homebuilt Aircraft, tells how to test such aircraft systematically and safely, with professional results. It defines flight testing as a four-phase step-by-step process of learning the limitations of an aircraft; defining and eliminating aircraft problems, and determining aircraft capability and optimum flying techniques - all with minimum risk to pilot and machine. From your final system tests, taxi testing, the first flight, and through exploring its stall/spin characteristics, the book teaches pilots to use this time tested process to conduct safe test flights customized to specific aircraft in specific testing environments.
