• Abstract:
  This report documents use of the NASA Design and Analysis of Rotorcraft (NDARC) helicopter performance software tool in developing data for the FAA’s Aviation Environmental Design Tool (AEDT). These data support the Rotorcraft Performance Model (RPM) developed for AEDT. The methods are primarily intended to support helicopters which do not have sufficient data in their flight manuals to develop data using the methods documented in DOT-VNTSC-FAA-16-03. The process of developing performance data for RPM using NDARC is detailed for a piston engine training helicopter.
