There was a problem hiding this comment.
Descent phase values (mach=.72, alt=34000 ft) probably still come from one of the transport aircraft.

Summary
Incorporating a small UAV aircraft example into aviary.
TODO:
have to change how the airfoil CSV is read in, this is probably for the propellar (not the wing). notes in test_cruse.py indicate: NOTE: no @use_tempdirs here. DBFMassBuilder reads its airfoil CSV via a repo-root- relative path (like the dbf_based_mass unit tests), so this must run from the repo root.need to have docs that describe mass builder, aero-builder (simple and medium)
docs need to cover why ribs are specified as ribs = np.array([0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 2]) each array element represents one of 20 ribs along the aircraft, and the number determines which material/thickness that rib will have. So a '0' element will be 0.0016 Balsa; '1' will be 0.0016 Ply; '2' will be 0.0024 Ply.
check partials for aero_model.py and
aero_OAS_examples.pymany overall tests i.e. test_cruse.py are missing asserts.
some tests create new phase infos which is probably unneeded.
Some variables are declared in UAV_variable_meta_data.py but unused in the codebase
