Research abstract

Lightning Technologies, Inc. (LTI) with Stoddard-Hamilton Aircraft, Inc. (SHA) proposes to provide an innovative test bed airplane for testing and integrating emerging advanced GA cockpit technologies to enable safe operation in adverse electromagnetic environments associated with lightning strikes, static electricity and high intensity radiated fields (HIRF). The overall goal is to accomplish this integration at a cost affordable by the manufacturers of small airplanes and which is substantially less than that presently being expended by the larger general aviation manufacturers to achieve FAA certification of advanced technology cockpit avionics, including multi-function displays (EFIS, EICAS) and autopilots. Phase I includes flight tests near a known HIRF emitter for feasibility evaluations. Phase II includes integration and verification of advanced avionics in the test bed airplane. The advanced cockpit will be installed in the lightning-protected Glasair III (Glasair III-LP) designed and built by SHA under NASA SBIR 03.02.8533.
