(NEW) Single Receiver GPS Precise Positioning (NEW)

How would you like it if someone could step onto your airplane with a simple hand-held device and -- in less than 2 hours -- produce high precision, professional publishing quality takeoff and landing performance charts for your flight manual supplement or pilot operating handbook?

Here's how it can be done...

For the last decade, differential GPS has been the flight test standard for measuring takeoff and landing distances. This is how the major aircraft manufacturers do it, but it has always been hampered by the requirement for setting up a base station at a known, surveyed position and installing complicated, expensive and sometimes unreliable telemetry equipment on your airplane.

Approved by the Airworthiness Authorities in 2004 for collecting aircraft position data for certification, we are now offering a low cost single receiver GPS package that is capable of achieving centimeter to decimeter accuracy in both horizontal and vertical position.

Applications include:

Takeoff performance
Landing performance
Braking performance
Vmcg runway centerline deviation
Ground and in-flight position error determination
RVSM

This solution completely eliminates the requirement for a base station and expensive post-processing software.

There is no telemetry requirement and test repeats due to telemetry dropouts are a thing of the past.

The system employs a receiver with data logging capability in one package with minimal equipment installation requirements -- so we can literally show up at your site, walk onto the airplane and begin testing immediately.

Ultra-low cost is achieved by utilizing the existing publicly available GPS infrastructure and open-source software.

And the best thing is -- we can do it for you OR show you how to do it yourself in the fastest time and at the least expense possible.

Aircraft Performance

Rapid-Response Data Reduction & Expansion

Wouldn't it be amazing for you to, one month from today, know your airplane's performance characteristics in intimate detail and have an approved, professionally-produced Airplane Flight Manual Performance Supplement that you and your customers can use to get the most out of your product? You probably know that this isn't possible... Right?

today to find out how you can make this happen.

With professional planning and implementation, we are capable of completing even the most complex transport category aircraft performance determination program in approximately one week and with minimal instrumentation. To you, this means that you'll have your results in the fastest time and at the least expense possible.

Has anybody told you that this is impossible? Nobody knows what is achievable, or impossible, so any giant goal is fair game. How do we know that this IS possible? We've done it. We're doing it right now...

We have a complete in-house FAR 23 and FAR 25 performance prediction and determination capability, including:

Stall performance
Air data calibrations and airspeed/altitude position error determination
Climb performance
Takeoff flight path, net climb gradient and obstacle clearance
Glide performance for single-engine aircraft
Takeoff, approach, and landing reference speed determination
Takeoff distance and takeoff run
Accelerate-stop distance
Landing distance
Braking performance - including contaminated runways and the effect of system failures
Installed power and thrust determination

We have honed our performance flight test techniques and data analysis methods over numerous flight test programs for rapid data turn-around and reporting, enabling us to complete any aircraft performance determination program in minimum time and at minimum cost.

Utilizing publishing-quality plotting software, we are able to rapidly produce professional-looking airplane flight manual performance charts and lookup tables.
