Abstract:
Since October 1962 continuous trace records of airworthiness data have been taken from a small number of aircraft in normal airline service. Throughout the recording period the records have been searched for unusual occurrences, and each of these has been studied to determine its nature and, where possible, it's cause. This Report describes a selection of events related to airspeed control practices which were detected in records taken between February 1963 and February 1966, and a study of exceedences of airspeed limitations. CAADRP is a project administered by the Royal Aircraft Establishment in collaboration with the Air Registration Road, and involving a number of Airlines and Computer Instrumentation Limited.
