| DTO 805 |
| Overview |
|
This DTO will continue to gather data to demonstrate the capability to perform a manually controlled landing with a 90-degree, 10- to 15-knot steady crosswind. This DTO can be performed regardless of landing site or vehicle mass properties. During a crosswind landing, the drag chute will be deployed after nose gear touchdown when the vehicle is stable and tracking the runway centerline. |
