About this work

An F/A-18E from the Naval Air Systems Command (NAVAIR) in Patuxent River, Maryland, is moved from NASA’s Armstrong Flight Research Center Flight Loads Laboratory in Edwards, California, to a hangar where it will undergo final preparations to return to its squadron. The aircraft underwent the center’s biggest load calibrations tests. The testing will permit the aircraft to serve as a test vehicle to determine if it can safely manage maneuvers and proposed upgrades.
