The purpose of this standard is to provide a source of definitions of terms and acronyms commonly used in the air transport maintenance community for test and evaluation with an emphasis on terms applicable to BITE.

This document defines the aircraft industry's standards for Loadable Software Parts (LSPs) and Media Set Parts (MSPs). It describes the common principles and rules to be applied to any part of a data load system to ensure compatibility and inter-operability. It includes part numbering, content, labeling, and formatting of an LSP, and a Media Set containing LSPs.

This standard defines standards for loadable software parts and software transport media. It describes the principles and rules to be applied to any part of a data load system, to ensure compatibility and interoperability. It includes part numbering, content, labeling and formatting of loadable software parts and software transport media.

This document describes a secure internet facility for sending all types of aviation software using the world wide web (www). Software suppliers may use this document as a starting point for the construction of a secure web server utility. It provides sufficient flexibility and is compatible with numerous software distribution models. The file management structure is consistent with other ARINC standards for loadable software, and references ARINC 665 and ARINC 667 in particular.

This standard is a top-level design guide for managing the development and maintenance of avionics software. It provides guidance for the design and development of avionics software for traditional ARINC 700-series equipment and IMA. This standard emphasizes the airline desire for user-modifiable software.

The purpose of this standard is to provide a method for packaging aircraft software parts for distribution using contemporary media or by electronic distribution. This project intends to standardize and provide guidance for the storage of floppy based software, currently packaged in media set parts. This standard format can be then stored or distributed on a single physical media member (CD-ROM), or by electronic crate. The obsolescence of floppy disks drive an urgent need for this guidance.

This standard describes the format for electronic distribution of aircraft software parts and other contents between aerospace business partners using a digital container referred to as an EDS crate. This EDS standard is intended to promote consistent, secure distribution of EDS content to any appropriate destination.

This standard describes the characteristics of a standard firmware loader for avionic shops. It is capable of copying digital information into memory devices installed in circuit card assemblies, Line Replaceable Modules (LRMs) and On-Board Replaceable Modules (OBRMs). It contains the recommendations of the air transport community concerning the design and development of firmware loader equipment.

This document describes effective methods to manage and distribute operation flight software programs, aeronautical data bases and other forms of software used within an airline organization. Topics include software acquisition, software receiving, software distribution and necessary documentation. The FLS management process described in ARINC 667 is compatible with published FAA/JAA guidance on this subject. Software suppliers, airline users and regulators will find this document to be a practical and effective guide.

This document provides industry guidance to supplement ATA standards and airframe requirements, addressing gaps and vague areas to move suppliers/vendors and airframers toward a common standard for format and wording in Vendor Service Bulletins (VSB) for Air Transport components. This document supplements the VSB guidance of iSpec 2200, providing clarity of requirements and resulting in a common standard wording and format of VSBs from all suppliers on all aircraft types. The guidance in this document is intended to be applied to VSBs created and released subsequent to the release of the guidance document and will not require the retroactive update of VSBs released prior to the creation and release of the guidance.

The purpose of this document is to establish guidance for Aircraft Support Data Management (ASDM). This guidance is intended for operators (e.g., pilot-in-command, maintenance activities, renter-pilot, or air carrier certificate holder) of transport aircraft.

This standard describes the format for electronic distribution of aircraft software parts and other contents between aerospace business partners using a digital container referred to as an EDS crate. This EDS standard is intended to promote consistent, secure distribution of EDS content to any appropriate destination.

This standard provides guidance to those who develop avionics test programs and the source documentation on which they are based. This includes guidelines for all steps and phases within the TPS life cycle.
