1.1 Introduction:
This SAE Aerospace Information Report (AIR) was written because of the growing interest in aircraft
installed outdoor engine testing by the Federal Aviation Administration, airlines, charter/commercial
operators, cargo carriers, engine manufacturers and overhaul and repair stations. This document
was developed by a broad cross section of personnel from the aviation industry and government
agencies and includes information obtained from a survey of a variety of operators of fixed and rotary
wing aircraft and research of aircraft and engine maintenance manuals.
1.2 Purpose:
This document will provide aircraft operators with an overview of current industry on-the-wing engine
test practices including advantages/disadvantages derived, test criteria, capabilities of remote
ground based test data acquisition/instrumentation and on board condition monitoring systems,
aircraft installation effects, and a general discussion of procedures, data, equipment and personnel
required to perform safe, accurate, on-the-wing engine tests. This information is provided as a guide
to help operators decide to initiate, improve, expand or cease performing installed engine testing.strRefField
