Implementation of UL flight simulations as part of the review of the effects of a new stadium construction at the Freiburg airfield.

June 2016 | Safety Assessment

On behalf of the city of Freiburg, GfL examines the compatibility of the new stadium construction with the flight operations at the VLP Freiburg. The focus lies especially on the evaluation of altered wind conditions due to wind shielding effects caused by the stadium body and a future university building. For the analysis of possible effects, scenario-based real-time experiments were conducted with a UL simulator of RUWE AERO GmbH at the Strausberg airfield (RUWE AERO). Due to the professional cooperation with a dedicated team of experienced and prospective pilots on site, the measurements could be completed successfully.
