Our test fleet accumulated a record 37 sorties for 54.8h of flight testing in April, and we achieved several major milestones," says Raburn. "This brings the total, including [now-retired test aircraft] N500EA, to 112 sorties and over 127 flight hours. We expect the fourth aircraft to join at the end of May, and the fifth three weeks or so after that."
The next two aircraft into the programme, N505EA and N506EA, will serve as the hard-working "beta" test aircraft, proving the basic reliability of the systems and the design in simulated day-to-day operations.
