“…3) The test may reveal several cracks which are insignificant for safety but which are important for the economic operation of the aircraft* 38 ' 39) . Harpur and Troughton (33) and also Rhomberg' 40) evaluating this argument came to the conclusion that full-scale testing is fully justified from the economic point of view. In many cases the economic argument will not allow an easy and relevant evaluation, but we should recognise that a flight-simulation test on a full-scale structure is equivalent to "flying the aircraft in the test hall" and valuable structural experience may be gained.…”
