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

This standard covers three basic types of total-temperature-measuring instruments used as a means of determining the total temperature developed by adiabatic heating of the air due to motion of the aircraft through the air.

This document is limited to units meeting the definitions of para. 1.3 and covers the following general class of synchros: 26 volt, 400 cycle synchros 115 volt, 400 cycle synchros 115 volt, 60 cycle synchros

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 Aerospace Standard (AS) specifies minimum performance requirements for primary pressure altimeter systems other than air data computers. This AS covers altimeter systems that measure and display altitude as a function of atmospheric pressure. The pressure transducer may be contained within the instrument display case or located remotely. Requirements for air data computers are specified in AS8002. Some requirements for nontransducing servoed altitude indicators are included in AS791. The instrument system specified herein does not include aircraft pressure lines. Unless otherwise specified, whenever the term "instrument" is used, it is to be understood to be the complete system of pressure transducer components, any auxiliary equipment, and display components. The test procedures specified herein apply specifically to analog type instruments. Digital instruments or automatic test instrumentation may require other test procedures.

The instrument system specified shall accept an input of static pressure and in some equipment other inputs that contribute altitude information to provide a visual indication of pressure altitude. If equipped with an automatic correction mechanism, it shall indicate by a positive means when the automatic correction mechanism is not in use. If the static source pressure error compensating mechanism is operational it shall be functional throughout the required operating envelope of the particular aircraft. Each aircraft type has its own static source error data which shall be obtained from the airframe manufacturer’s certified data. When a Central Air Data Computer is used in the altimeter system, the CADC shall be certified to its own governing document and the altimeter system (CADC and display) shall comply with the requirements of this document. NOTE: The instrument system specified herein does not include the aircraft pressure lines and pressure sources.

The purpose of this AIR is to provide recommendations for the minimum dimensions of characters and symbols used in aircraft instrument dials and panel displays as related to the conditions stated in para. 3. Numerous variables influence the legibility of aircraft instrument dial characters. This situation makes it very difficult, if not impossible, to establish an exact act of rules for optimizing all installations. Character size, one of the important considerations, can be optimized where adequate dial space exists. Usually this is not the case and the designer is faced with placing the information in a limited space while continuing to strive for error-free legibility. Appropriate minimum size requirements have been stated herein for guidance in air transport use.

All automatic altitude reporting digitizer equipment manufactured under this standard shall comply with the requirements as specified up to its maximum range as indicated on the equipment nameplate.

This standard covers three (3) basic types of flight recorders as defined below: All requirements specified in Sections 3, 4, 5, 6 and 7 of this standard shall be applicable to all recorder types unless otherwise noted.

This SAE Aerospace Standard (AS) covers one type of maximum-allowable-airspeed instrument which gives a continuous indication of both indicated airspeed and maximum allowable airspeed not exceeding 650 knots.
