Abstract
This presentation will discuss the range of tasks in flight test instrumentation that can be solved with a modular and flexible flight test system. Examples include rotor tests, landing gear tests or complete certification tests, just to name a few. Often, a common challenge is to synchronize and combine the variety of data sources across the airplane or helicopter, like analog sensors, avionics or telemetry for rotating parts. In addition, modern possibilities for handling and processing the live data will be dis-cussed. That includes self-explanatory visualization, real-time processing and if relevant transmission to ground.
