This thread is for the discussion of manned ornithopter flight testing procedures.
We are approaching the time when there may be several manned ornithopters being tested. At the moment, I'm the only ornithopter pilot here on this forum so I'd like to start this thread by listing some of the things I learned when I was the test pilot of the UTIAS manned ornithopter [1995 to 2001 inclusive].
I'll be making several posts over the next few days .
