There was another similar test done sometime back with B-727 where a lot of data was collected. It should be on YouTube. I will try to find it.

B727 will always have a special place in my heart. That's the ATPL plane in Australia with B767, to this day.

Such numbers put aviation in perhaps the top position of industries requiring a bailout, like banks in the 2008 financial crisis.
