Our eXtra Performance Wing demo will include demonstrations of gust and turbulence load alleviation.

Your mission 

Working with XWING’ teams, as Turbulence predictions for XWING Flight Tests intern, you will:

· 
Apply data science on the historical EDR data (sampling for flight test area, analyses by altitude, seasonality, etc.), for 2021 to 2024

· 
Relate EDR with flight test data gathered during X-Wing Phase-1

· 
Relate EDR data with levels of gust and turbulence that can be expected, and the resulting loads

· 
Predict the likelihood of encountering different levels of turbulence in the flight test area at different altitudes during different times of the day and year

· 
Propose a process for using EDR to decide on the suitability of flight testing in turbulence on a 24-hour horizon.

 

Duration : 6 months

Starting date:   January 2025 ideally , March 2025 latest
