Wake turbulence during cruising flight

3 June 2011

When aircraft fly, they generate turbulent airflow behind them known as –˜wake turbulence’, which can affect following air traffic. The German Aerospace Center (DLR) has developed a method to measure wake turbulence in flight. This method was put to the test during flights with DLR’s Falcon 20E research aircraft.
