| Comments: | Shake flight included RVSM calibration test points due to installation of canister probes below the aircraft at the Nadir #2 location potentially causing unknown static pressure position error on the altimeter. The flight included at Tower Fly By at 500 ft AGL and about Mach 0.5. It also included test points at FL290, 320, 350, and 380. Aircraft returned good with no problems discovered in shake flight. Post-flight analysis showed Novatel GPS installed for RVSM cal was not operating during the flight. | ||||
