Flight Test Lab 2024 in Nordholz (Germany)
Aviation students from the ZHAW carried out a series of flight tests in Nordholz as part of the ‘Flight Test Lab’.
As part of the Summer School "Flight Test Lab," students from ZHAW traveled to Nordholz in August to conduct flight tests. This week-long program is organized and carried out in collaboration with the Aachen University of Applied Sciences. Students have the opportunity to gain hands-on experience in flight testing and apply their knowledge directly. During the preparation phase, they developed various experiments, which they later conducted in Nordholz using a Cap10 aircraft. In addition to on-site preparations and data analysis, the exchange with students and professors from Aachen was a key focus. A culinary highlight of the week is the Swiss Evening, where the Swiss delegation organizes a Raclette dinner for everyone. The students will present the results of their experiments in Aachen in November.
