The invention provides a test method for a ditching towing tank of a fixed-wing airplane model. The method is characterized by comprising the steps of a, testing and mounting a testing device and the fixed-wing airplane model; b, testing by the steps of recording the movement posture, the acceleration change condition of the head, middle and tail part, and the pressure change after the bottom is in contact with water, of the model through a gyro, an acceleration sensor and a pressure sensor in the model during the test, recording the movement of the fixed-wing airplane model (9) separated from the testing device through a video type recorder, including the change condition of water lines of the model after entering water, reachwater sliding condition, and static floating in water. The method has the advantages of being practical, feasible, simple to operate, reliable in test result, and wide in applicable scope.
