30 YEARS LAGG-BBTA3 BBTA3 (National Laboratory for Aerodynamics, Aeroelastics, and Aeroacoustics Technology)— Formerly known as LAGG (Laboratorium Aero Gasdinamika dan Getaran or Aero Gas-dynamics and Vibration Laboratory)—was inaugurated in 1989 to realize the vision of independence Indonesian in acquiring aerospace technology. For more than 30 years, LAGG/BBTA3 keep making significant contributions to Indonesian aerospace technology development through wind tunnel aerodynamic testing. ILST (Indonesian Low-Speed Tunnel), as one of BBTA3’s primary facilities, has conducted numerous aerodynamic tests for various aircraft models, belong to either domestic and international customers.

Knowledge is not merely everything we have come to know, but also ideas we have pondered long enough to know in which way they are related, and 1 how these ideas can be put to practical use. Modern aviation has been made possible as a result of much scienti c - search. However, the very rst useful results of this research became ava- able a considerable length of time after the aviation pioneers had made their rst ights. Apparently, researchers were not able to nd an adequate exp- nation for the occurrence of lift until the beginning of the 21st century. Also, for the fundamentals of stability and control, there was no theory available that the pioneers could rely on. Only after the rst moto...
