A flight test with a simplified HLFC system on the vertical tail plane of an A320 aircraft was performed in April/May 2018. In this paper the preparation of the flight test data for evaluation with linear stability theory on the basis of sample measurements is discussed. Then, the correlated transition N-factors are presented and compared them with the results of the A320 flight tests of 1998. (source: https://arc.aiaa.org/doi/abs/10.2514/6.2021-1305)
