gulfstream‘s g650 hits Mach 0.995<br />

Gulfstream Aerospace‘s new G650 reached Mach<br />

0.995 in flutter tests, making the airplane the world‘s<br />

fastest civil aircraft. The speed was attained as<br />

part of the G650‘s certification flight test program.<br />

Gulfstream experimental test pilots Tom Horne and<br />

Gary Freeman, along with flight test engineer Bill<br />

Osborne, pitched the airplane‘s nose down 16 to 18<br />

degrees below the horizon to hit the target speed.<br />

The maneuver was designed to test the airplane‘s<br />

natural flutter resistance when the wings, tail, and<br />

control surfaces were subjected to vibrations from<br />

onboard flutter exciters. The vibration frequencies<br />

exerted on the airplane ranged from two hertz<br />

(cycles per second) to 58 hertz, or about as fast as a<br />

fluorescent light flickers.<br />

The airplane performed as expected. Horne said,<br />

„The airplane is very predictable. It‘s very easy to<br />

control and get precise control at those speeds. The airplane response has matched the<br />

expectations of our engineers, and we‘ve been able to easily fly the test conditions and<br />

march through the test plan.“
