Flight test evaluation of a flight inspection aircraft (Cessna Citation 500) equipped with position sensors, calibrated navaids receivers and a fully automatic data acquisition and data processing system for the real-time calibration and inspection of radionavigation and instrument landing systems was carried out. For the evaluation and acceptance of the en-route part of the system, a small, light-weight flexible data acquisition system was installed. Using a specially developed software package, high accuracy position reference data was computed off-line to demonstrate the CFIS navaids en route calibration performance and to determine the overall navigation accuracy of the flight inspection and navigation system during the calibration flights. The distance measuring equipment position reference method, the function and the operational principle of the flight inspection system, additional test equipment, and the data processing are described.
