We had a similar issue at Adam Aircraft back in 2007. I was in charge of doing drop tests. I would design and build a drop tower to pick up the landing gear and spin the wheel prior to dropping. We have a lot of sensors hooked up to it to record the drop, impact, reaction and rest. We pour over the data and write up a report to present to the FAA. This is standard for a lot of aviation company developing an aircraft. (The landing gear is a basic concept that has not changed for several decades.)
Now, the A700 AdamJet is a VLJ (Very Light Jet), due to the Carbon Composite Material being applied. It's very new to the avaition industry.
We were designing and building a Fuel Pod, and I had to do the drop test on it. The Fuel Pod is placed at the belly of the aircraft, and in case of an emergency, the plane has to land without landing gears, it would land on it's belly. If the Fuel Pod ruptures, the whole plane catches on fire.
We had to design it so that it withstands the force. However, if it was metal design, the FAA would not freak out. But it's CFRP. The FAA freaks out. They don't understand it. So we have to do extensive testing to show them that it's going to be okay. It was not easy.
I do understand what Igor was trying to do. I'm sure that with the 7 mini test, he had to write reports to present the case on each failure.
If the FAA blacks out the "opinions" it tells me that they are subjective to the results.
It should not be that way...it should be objective. Therefore those blackouts should not be opinions.
I think they are afraid that they will get their BS called out if released to the public.
