The aerodynamic effect of heavy rain on airplane performance is presented in the form of view-graphs. The following subject areas are covered: review of heavy rain airfoil tests; development of heavy rain aerodynamic model for a twin-jet transport; performance analysis with heavy rain effects; numeric simulation of wet microburst encounter; and summary of results and future needs.
