There are two major categories in which future work is available, and must be completed to come to solid conclusions. These two categories are data analysis and simulation testing. Each has its own list of questions that must be answered to conclusively determine whether the plane crashed due to a faulty engine mount.
In the data analysis category, these are the primary points that must be researched in order to conclusively determine the cause of the crash:
1. Determine the exact shut-off transient for the CVR to discount ambiguity in the signal analysis
2. Research and identify the data archives in the Aeroelasticity Laboratory computer
3. Match the timelines on the nominal engine out data and the actual CVR data
4. Verification of the Fall 2002 Wavelet group analysis
In the testing category, the primary research should be focused on:
1. Executing the impulse, single-bolt pop, single-tube pop, and engine mount test in order to answer the objectives in Section 8
2. Determine if previous data from the Aeroelasticity Laboratory can answer some of the test objectives in order to save money and time with testing
3. Verification of the equilibrium analyses from the Fall 2002 Wavelet group
