The present generation of aircraft is equipped with a number of advanced avionics systems like digital Flight Management or Mission Computers, Flight Control Computers and Electronic Flight Instrument Systems (EFIS). In the near future new systems may be introduced as the Microwave Landing Systems (MLS), Navstar Global Positioning System (GPS) and digital data link systems (SSR-mode S or via satellites). Extensive simulator and inflight testing is required to determine the optimal use of the new avionics systems and to establish new operational procedures. The Netherlands National Aerospace Laboratory NLR performs research in the area of the MLS using a moving-base simulator and is planning to use its Fairchild Metro II research aircraft for airborne testing. To this purpose a multi-year program has been started called ART (Avionics Research Testbed).
