Elevated Fixed Platform

Lakehurst, NJ

The height of the EFP deck provides a change in ground effect as the aircraft transitions over the platform, resulting in true flight characteristics. Aircraft having gross weights of up to 90,000 pounds can be landed at 2.67 G’s. This is the only site in the world for evaluating RAST equipment and operational procedures.
