This document defines an open encoding format for obstacle databases. This format, when designed and implemented, will enable a quick, economic, and efficient use of Obstacle Databases (ObsDBs). However, since industry does not require applications to be standardized, data interpretation is not addressed in this document.

This interface control document defines the (e)Loran based alternate PNT interface for the EGI. It provides technical descriptions of definitions, specifications, and explanations for general distribution to providers, manufacturers, and consumers.

This Loran-C specification is intended as a reference document consisting of definitions, specifications, and explanations for general distribution to designers, manufacturers, and users. This specification provides a technical description of the Loran-C transmitting station’s signal.

This information report provides an overview of the eLoran PNT system.

This recommended practice provides guidance for using the eLoran signal for timing, phase, and frequency.

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 Aerospace Recommended Practice (ARP) offers guidelines for specifying servoloop pressure feedback transducers for use in hydraulic actuation for servosystems.

This Aerospace Recommended Practice will identify the problem with latency in the pilot's instrument control of an aircraft. Recommended evaluation techniques to characterize control problems will be documented.

This Aerospace Recommended Practice (ARP) provides guidance on methods for system level pump ripple and pulsation testing. Covered are pump testing versus system pulsation testing, test conditions, instrumentation and data collection, data reduction and analysis, and resolution of issues identified during testing.

The scope of this document is limited to Enhanced Synthetic Vision Systems ESVS human factors considerations and requirements in comprehension, interpretation and application of imagery and integrated symbology in Enhanced (sensor) and Synthetic (database) Vision Systems in aircraft. Any overlap into logic problems or hardware/software design should be considered to be incidental to the human factors issues. Where the performance characteristics of specific technologies are relevant they will be identified, and where performance criteria are relevant to specific intended functions/use they will be identified. From a regulatory view, intended function (Guidance or Information/Situation Awareness support) has a tremendous effect upon the design of an ESV System.

The scope of this Vertical Flight document is limited to human behavioral technologies associated with design and/or implementation of Enhanced Synthetic Vision Systems (ESVS) in vertical flight aircraft. Any overlap into logic problems or hardware/software design shall be considered to be incidental to the human factors issues. Where the performance characteristics of specific technologies are relevant they will be identified, and where performance criteria are relevant to specific intended functions/use they will be identified. From a regulatory view, intended function (Full Flight Guidance or Information/Situation Awareness support) has a tremendous effect upon the design of an ESV System. However from a Human Engineering standpoint, the information on display must be discernible and comprehensible to the human operator in both cases and differences may be primarily in information content (required to support a specific task).

This SAE Aerospace Recommended Practice (ARP) recommends criteria for the design and installation of Head-Up Display (HUD) systems. The recommendations are applicable to HUD systems for transport category aircraft, which display flight information (focused at infinity) in the forward field of view. The HUD total system requirement recommendations shall primarily lead to certifiable fail-passive CAT III characteristics and performance. This document forms a part of these recommendations. This document does not address devices for peripheral vision of displays worn by the pilot, nor the presentation of Enhanced Vision System (EVS) information.

The purpose of this document is to describe the recommendations of SAE Committee S-7 for a Flight Management Computer System (FMCS) capable of providing the functions and displays listed below to permit completion of a desired flight plan in an energy efficient and/or cost effective manner while meeting the requirements of Air Traffic Control. The recommendations of this document apply to transport aircraft and describe the operational objectives of the FMCS and related controls and displays.

This document covers information concerning the use of oxygen when flying into and out of high elevation airports for both pressurized and non-pressurized aircraft. Oxygen requirements for pressurized aircraft operating at high altitudes have for decades emphasized the potential failures that could lead to a loss of cabin pressurization coupled with the potential severe hypoxic hazard that decompressions represent. This document is intended to address the case where the relationship between cabin and ambient pressures are complicated by operations at high terrestrial altitudes. Operators who fly into these high-altitude airports should address the issues related to this environment because it carries the potential for insidious hypoxia and other conditions which can affect safety. It provides information to consider in developing operational procedures to address hypoxia concerns consistent with regulatory mandates.

This document recommends criteria for the flight deck display of an On Board Weight and Balance System. The system may have the capability of a primary operational device or be a secondary advisory source of information of weight and center of gravity position. The recommendations apply to transport aircraft and describe the operational and functional requirements for the display of an On Board Weight and Balance System.

This document recommends criteria and requirements for a flight management system (FMS) for transport aircraft. The FMS shall provide the functions of lateral navigation, vertical navigation, and performance management and may include time of arrival control. The FMS design shall take human factors considerations into account to produce a fault tolerant system.
