Scope

At present, there are no industry or government standards for determining in-flight thrust or the associated uncertainty. The purpose of this document is to provide information covering methods for estimating the measurement error or uncertainty of in-flight thrust determination in aircraft employing conventional turbofan/turbojet engines. Methodologies beyond those presented are required in order to evaluate configurations such as vectored thrust or V/STOL. The document is intended to be used as a technical guide. It is not intended to be used as a standard or legal document. A companion document, SAE AIR 1703, presents information and guidance on the selection and use of methodologies to predict and assess propulsion system in-flight thrust. Both documents describe comprehensive procedures and tasks for implementing the methodologies. Each program would select those tasks that are appropriate to meet its particular objectives.rogram would select those tasks that are appropriate to meet its particular objectives.
