ATTACHMENT E

FLIGHT TEST

(This Attachment E is revised in its entirety by the Amendment No. 7 to the DDA)

AV will perform a flight test plan which will optimize data collection efficiency during the Flight Tests. A build-up approach to the flight test campaign will be conducted which efficiently demonstrates aircraft handling and performance at low altitude prior to transitioning to high altitude. Ref. PDM AV ###-###-####.

Data will be collected to verify that the final aircraft configuration meets the requirements defined for FAA basis of certification as detailed in PDM AV55266-1020-FAA Standards Development and Coordination. The details of the flight test program pertain to the prototype version of the Hawk30 Prototype with the goal of demonstrating [***] flight endurance.

Prior to the beginning of the initial Flight Test, the AV team will accomplish exhaustive build-up testing in venues such as environmental qualification laboratories, the HAP System Integration Laboratory, and HAP flight deck and flight test control room simulation environments.

The Ground Test and Flight Test Plan listed in PDM AV ###-###-#### list the following test elements to be successfully completed for the Hawk30 Prototype flight test program.

Ground test campaign:

oAircraft functional tests with motor runs

oGround handling

oAirfield operations

Low altitude flight test campaign (with Flight Test Instrumentation System)

oBaseline location is primarily an airfield in [***] and [***]

oThis phase consists of notionally [***] on [***] and [***]

oFlight Test events are planned to be executed at the rate of [***]
