Abstract:

On December 1, 1984, the Federal Aviation Administration FAA, and the National Aeronautics and Space Administration NASA, conducted an air-to-ground impact test demonstration with a remotely piloted jet transport category airplane. This demonstration, identified as the Full-Scale Transport Controlled Impact Demonstration CID Program, was the culmination of four years of effort by the two agencies. The major FAA objectives included the demonstration of antimisting fuel and a series of fire safety and structural type crashworthiness experiments. The NASA, demonstration objectives also extended to the crashworthiness experiment area. This report provides a summary of the FAA structural experiments which included an instrumented fuselage structure and an associated analytical KRASH model, on-board seat cabin restraint and flight data recorder system installations, and a post-impact accident investigation exercise. The summary contains a description of each experiment, related pre- post-test activities, and resulting test data.
