But what are we talking about exactly?

📊 Wind tunnel testing is a process made to study aerodynamics and air flow effects on an aircraft prototype

This testing gave us more data and clear outcomes about the performances and reliability of ATEA:

👉 Validation of the flight abilities and performances
👉 Full-scale performances assessment
👉 Better understanding and validation of our Fan-In-Wing technology
👉 Atea’s handling qualities evaluation, first step through certification
👉 Aerodynamics data and modeling for future airframe improvements

A new step to the future of aviation!
