This SAE Aerospace Standard (AS) provides the general performance, design, installation, test, development, and quality assurance requirements for the flight control related functions of the Vehicle Management Systems (VMS) of military piloted aircraft. It also provides specification guidance for the flight control interfaces with other systems and subsystems of the aircraft.

This Aerospace Recommended Practice (ARP) provides general requirements for a generic, integrated rudder and brake pedal unit, incorporating a passive force-feel system that could be used for fixed-wing fly-by wire transport and business aircraft.This ARP addresses the following:- The functions to be implemented- The mechanical interconnection between captain and F/O station- The geometric and mechanical characteristics- The mechanical, electrical, and electronic interfaces- The safety and certification requirements

This Aerospace Information Report (AIR) provides information on systems integration rigs, commonly referred to as “Iron Birds” for aerospace applications. a It includes background historical information including descriptions of Iron Birds produced to date, important component elements and selection rationale, hydraulic system design and operational modes and illustrates the design approaches to be considered. b It provides illustrations of the various systems that should be considered for Iron Bird testing in the development phase and utilization during the production program. c It includes recommendations for simulation, component development tests, system integration and lessons learned.

This SAE Aerospace Information Report (AIR) provides descriptions of aircraft flight control actuation system failure-detection methods. The fault-detection methods are those used for ground and in-flight detection of failures in electrohydraulic actuation systems for primary flight controls.

The document provides a definition of skew and disconnect occuring in high lift systems in flight controls including their hazard assessment, describes generic solutions and provides a for specifying requirements.

Scope: This Aerospace Recommended Practice (ARP) provides guidelines for specifying dielectric withstanding strength and insulation resistance design and test requirements for aircraft line replaceable units (LRU's) used within a flight control and/or a utility system. 1.1 Purpose The testing is intended to verify that an LRU can operate safely at its rated voltage and withstand momentary over potentials due to switching, troubleshooting testing, surges, etc.. The testing is also intended to verify adequate design margin of the insulation system and detect workmanship problems.

This document establishes recommended practices for the specification of general performance, design, test, development, and quality assurance requirements for the flight control related functions of the Vehicle Management Systems (VMS) of military Unmanned Aircraft (UA), the airborne element of Unmanned Aircraft Systems (UAS), as defined by ASTM F 2395-07. The document is written for military unmanned aircraft intended for use primarily in military operational areas. The document also provides a foundation for considerations applicable to safe flight in all classes of airspace.
