This document describes guidelines, methods, and tools used to perform the ongoing safety assessment process for transport airplanes in commercial service (hereafter, termed “airplane”). The process described herein is intended to support an overall safety management program. It is associated with showing compliance with the regulations, and also with assuring a company that it meets its own internal standards. The methods identify a systematic means, but not the only means, to assess ongoing safety.While economic decision-making is an integral part of the safety management process, this document addresses only the ongoing safety assessment process. To put it succinctly, this document addresses the “Is it safe?” part of safety management; it does not address the “How much does it cost?” part of the safety management.This document also does not address any specific organizational structures for accomplishing the safety assessment process.

This document describes a process that may be used to perform the ongoing safety assessment for (1) GAR aircraft and components (hereafter, aircraft), and (2) commercial operators of GAR aircraft. The process described herein is intended to support an overall safety management program. It is to help a company establish and meet its own internal standards. The process described herein identifies a systematic means, but not the only means, to assess continuing airworthiness.Ongoing safety management is an activity dedicated to assuring that risk is identified and properly eliminated or controlled. The safety management process includes both safety assessment and economic decision-making. While economic decision-making (factors related to scheduling, parts, and cost) is an integral part of the safety management process, this document addresses only the ongoing safety assessment process.

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 SAE Recommended Practice is applicable to two- or three-wheel motorcycles intended for highway use. Unless noted, requirements apply to both metallic and nonmetallic tanks. Accessory or aftermarket tanks as well as original equipment tanks are covered.

This SAE Aerospace Standard (AS)/Minimum Operational Performance Specification (MOPS) specifies the minimum performance requirements of Remote On-Ground Ice Detection Systems (ROGIDS). These systems are ground-based. They provide information that indicates whether frozen contamination is present on aircraft surfaces. Section 1 provides information required to understand the need for the ROGIDS, ROGIDS characteristics, and tests that are defined in subsequent sections. It describes typical ROGIDS applications and operational objectives and is the basis for the performance criteria stated in Section 3 through Section 5. Section 2 provides reference information, including related documents, abbreviations, and definitions. Section 3 contains general design requirements for the ROGIDS. Section 4 contains the Minimum Operational Performance Requirements for the ROGIDS, which define performance in icing conditions likely to be encountered during ground operations.

The SAE AE-5CH Taskgroup has determined that high flow liquid hydrogen fueling couplings need to be developed in order to fast fill aircraft at the airport. Though the flow rates from a current liquid hydrogen bayonet connect may reach the lower bound flow rates of regional aircraft, there are some shortcomings to this connector for aerospace. For this reason a new specification for flow rates for regional to narrowbody (and potentially later widebody) are to be developed in this documenet. Harmonization for lower flow rates (such as up to 20kg/minute) are planned to be harmonized with ground vehicle fueling such as with ISO 13984. Within this document,coupling descriptions including Flow rates from 84 to 200 kg/minute will be evaluated (and potentially higher), and requirements and testing and safety targets will be specified.

Specification of a high strength aluminum alloy for production of aerospace components using AM processes

This SAE Recommended Practice establishes a method of evaluating the structural integrity of the parking brake system of all new trucks, buses, and combination vehicles designed for roadway use in the following classifications: TRACTOR, TRAILER, TRUCK, AND BUS: over 4500 kg (10 000 lb) GVWR.

This specification covers nitrile-butadiene elastomer in the form of molded sheet and shapes, color coded yellow per ARP1527.

This specification covers a premium aircraft-quality, low-alloy steel in the form of bars, forgings, mechanical tubing, and forging stock.

This specification covers a nitrile (NBR) rubber in the form of sheet, strip, tubing, extrusions, and molded shapes.

This specification covers a nitrile (NBR) rubber in the form of sheet, strip, tubing, extrusions, and molded shapes.

This specification covers a corrosion-resistant steel in the form of sheet and strip 0.005 inch (0.13 mm) and over in nominal thickness.

This document defines cables that are used to provide electrical power for U.S. Department of Defense avionics support and test equipment.

This document defines a consistent industry approach on engine and and auxillary power unit (APU) wiring to meet aircraft EWIS fire and flammability requirements. EWIS regulations apply to many different aircraft types that have propulsion systems certified to FAA 14 CFR part 33 & EASA CS-E. This document will compare these aircraft regulations and then reference the current 14 CFR part 33 requirements for propulsion systems to demonstrate how they can be leveraged to show compliance to EWIS requirements for all aircraft types. APUs are certified to the aircraft level requirements and are included in this document to clarify the type of data suggested to meet the Part/CS-25 EWIS requirement and/or associated normal aircraft regulations.

This SAE Aerospace Information Report (AIR) provides the hydraulic and flight-control system designer with the various design options and techniques that are currently available to enhance the survivability of military aircraft. The AIR addresses the following major topics: a Design concepts and architecture (see 3.2, 3.5, and 3.6) b Design implementation (see 3.3, 3.6, and 3.7) c Means to control external leakage (see 3.4) d Component design (see 3.8)

This specification covers procedures for ultrasonic inspection of thin wall metal tubing of titanium, titanium alloy, and corrosion- and heat-resistant steels and alloys having nominal OD over 0.1875 inch (4.762 mm) with OD to wall thickness ratio of 8 or greater and wall thickness variation not exceeding ±10% of nominal.
