An interesting list of what is done/tested after outfitting and painting in Finkenwerder - found hereBleed Check (hydraulic, water, air, etc.) High power engine run RTO Cabin First Flight Perfomance Flight Leak check 24 (then the tanks are filled) (High power engine run) Customer Flight Normally, that's all, but if errors occur, it may well be, of course, that certain tests should be repeated. |

Didn't really know where to place this interesting article, so I moved your post to create a new thread Linie 9, in this article it says flight tests at Hamburg for an A380 requires 11 people, and flight tests for an A320 requires 4 people. Fabien  |

That's only the flight crew ... Many more people are needed to monitor the datalinks, analyse the data, support the aircraft ...

It takes the teams in the flightline at least 3 to 4 hours to do all the pre-flight checks, then the really, really important bits are done by the 'Qualitäts-Sicherung' (always called 'QS'-->quality assurance) and I think that the test pilots don't even check the plane through from outside before the flight (can't remember that they did for the two test flights i was in the flightline for MSN 132 and we did the 'pre flight') |
