04/02/2010 12:32:16 Hits:47
Boeing moved the 787 Dreamliner fatigue test airframe to its structural test rig. The test rig is located in the northwest corner of the Everett, Wash., site
Dreamliner fatigue test set up is expected to begin immediately, with tests commencing midyear.
“Unlike static tests, where loads are applied to the airplane structure to simulate both normal operation and extreme flight conditions, Dreamliner fatigue testing is a much longer process that simulates up to three times the number of flight cycles an airplane is likely to experience during a lifetime of service,” said Scott Fancher, 787 vice president and general manager, Commercial Airplanes.
“This fatigue testing is instrumental in confirming the longevity of the airplane.”
