Document Description
The Air Force Flight Test Center at Edwards AFB, California proposes to add up to 25 aircraft, 2,000 sorties per year, and 1,500 military, government civilian, and contractor personnel to support small transient and new test missions that would operate at Edwards AFB and in the R-2508 Complex. Alternative A would include the complete contingent of aircraft, personnel, and major construction activities. The proposed action would result in a 20 percent increase over current operations at Edwards AFB and a 5.9 percent increase in use of the R-2508 Complex.
