Deutsches Museum Flugwerft Schleißheim - VFW 614 ATTAS 03

            The ATTAS (Advanced Technologies Testing Aircraft System) was in operation as a research aircraft at the German Aerospace Center (DLR) in Braunschweig from 1985 to 2012.

The base is the VFW 614 commercial aircraft, the first passenger jet developed and built in the Federal Republic of Germany.

The development of the aircraft type VFW 614 began in the mid-1960s at the United Aviation Engineering Plants VFW - a merger of Focke-Wulf, Weser Flugzeugbau and Ernst Heinkel Flugzeugbau in Bremen. This was the forward-looking conceptual design of a short-haul commercial aircraft for up to 44 passengers.

The M 45H turbine jet engines developed specifically for this purpose by Rolls-Royce/SNECMA had a large by-flow ratio of 3:1. The arrangement of the engines on pylons above the wing distinguished the VFW 614 strikingly from other aircraft. This avoided the suction of foreign bodies during operation on unpaved slopes.

The plane was not a commercial success. Only 19 aircraft were manufactured between 1971 and 1977.

The last flying VFW 614 was the ATTAS, which was used as a research aircraft at DLR for 27 years from 1985 to 2012. The ATTAS was equipped with flight test equipment for this purpose. In addition to a measuring system, this included data recording and additional sensors as well as modern experimental avionics, in particular an electrohydraulic flight control system (fly-by-wire/fly-by-light) in duplex design.
