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.

The scope of this document is limited to encompass terminology, symbols, performance criteria and certain elementary test methods reflecting the current status of the technology.

General terms peculiar to aerospace fluid power and control systems are defined in this glossary. Relevant terms have been excerpted from the referenced documents and included herein from the aerospace terms felt to be most useful to the ISO. This is a systems document and the only component-related terms are those significant at the systems level.

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 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 scope of this SAE Aerospace Recommended Practice (ARP) covers acquisition of flight test data for use in developing a statistical data base of aerospace vehicle flight control surface actuator duty cycle. The statistical data base is intended for use in establishing industry guidelines and procurement specification requirements for actuator displacement duty cycle. The objective of this ARP is to provide a uniform method for the aerospace industry to collect flight control displacement type duty cycle data during demonstration and full scale development of new aircraft or during development testing of new models of existing aircraft.

This SAE Aerospace Recommended Practice (ARP) provides guidelines for the configuration and design of mechanical control signal transmission systems and subsystems. It is focused on the recommended practices for designing cable and pulley, pushrod and bellcrank and push-pull flexible cable control systems. These systems are typically used in some combination to transmit pilot commands into primary, secondary and utility control system commands (mechanical or electrical) or aircraft surface commands. On mechanically controlled aircraft, most pilot control commands are initiated through cockpit mounted wheels, sticks, levers, pedals or cranks that are coupled by pushrods or links to cable systems. The cable systems are routed throughout the aircraft and terminated in close proximity to the commanded surface or function where cranks and pushrods are again used to control the commanded function.

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.
