This Aeronautical Standard covers the capacitance sensor type of instrument.

This specification covers that gyroscopic instrument normally defined as a "subminiature rate gyro." The rate gyro, when subjected to an angular rate about its input axis, provides an AC output voltage proportional to the angular rate. The subminiature size category generally includes gyro instruments of one (1) inch diameter or less and three and one-half (3 1/2) inches length or less. This specification defines the requirements for a subminiature spring-restrained, single-degree-of-freedom rate gyro for aircraft, missile, and spacecraft applications.

This ARP covers an electro-mechanical pneumatic device which is calibrated to provide control contacts that can be made to operate a warning device whenever the indicated airspeed (IAS) reaches a maximum value as defined by the operating limit speed curve for the specific model aircraft.

This document establishes the minimum requirements for design and qualification of equipment identified as Gyroscopically Stabilized Non-Magnetic Direction Instruments.

This document is limited to units meeting the definitions of para. 1.3 and covers the following general class of synchros:

This specification covers the design and performance requirements for a single axis, four load-factor level counting accelerometer group referred to hereafter as “equipment.”

This Standard covers Bank and Pitch Instruments which measure and display the angular displacement of bank and pitch from a gyroscopic vertical reference. This reference may be pneumatically or electrically driven and be contained within the instrument display case or located remotely. Unless otherwise specified, whenever the term "Instrument" is used, it is to be understood to be the complete system of gyro component, any auxiliary equipment and display.

These recommendations cover the mechanical and electrical installation and installation test procedures for Compass Systems of the type normally used in transport type aircraft. The recommendations in the ARP do not supersede any airworthiness requirements in Civil Air Regulations.

This Aerospace Standard covers Flight Director Equipments which display to the pilot a computed command for the operation of an aircraft in accordance with selected Mode(s). The term “Equipment” may include controls, displays, computers, etc. and may include sensors if furnished as a part of the Flight Director.

This AS defines components in "Capacitance Sensor" and "Non-Capacitance Sensor" type Fuel and Oil Quantity Indicating Systems. "Non-Capacitance" systems may employ any measurement technique current in the art including, but not restricted to, float, ultra-sonic and fiber optic devices. The definition of the individual components contained herein is related to the specified Total Installed System accuracy of the entire Fuel or Oil Quantity Indicating System which is a part of the airframe manufacturer's type certification approval data. This data shall be available from the subject airframe manufacturer as published in the operating manual for the aircraft type, model number and configuration. The Fuel or Oil Quantity Indicating System may incorporate optimum compensation based upon measurement of dielectric constant, temperature or density to correct for variations in fuel or oil characteristics due to temperature grade variations or additives.

This SAE Aerospace Recommended Practice (ARP) covers the test procedures and equipment for performing flight testing on pitot-static systems installed in subsonic transport type aircraft.

This SAE Aerospace Standard (AS) establishes the minimum requirements for design and qualification of equipment identified as Gyroscopically Stabilized Magnetic Direction Instruments.

This AS covers Vertical Velocity Instruments which display the rate of change of pressure altitude of an aircraft, as follows:

This SAE Aerospace Standard (AS) applies to all temperature instruments used in aircraft applications and environments. The word “instrument” as used in this Standard encompasses only the display device and does not include the temperature sensors. Examples of the types of instruments covered are as follows:
