Special Flight Tests Clause Samples
The Special Flight Tests clause establishes the terms and conditions under which aircraft may be operated for the purpose of conducting specific, non-routine flight tests. Typically, this clause outlines the requirements for prior approval, the qualifications of pilots, and any additional safety measures or insurance provisions that must be met before such flights can occur. By clearly defining the procedures and limitations for special flight tests, the clause ensures that both parties understand the risks involved and that appropriate safeguards are in place, thereby minimizing liability and enhancing operational safety.
