This SAE Aerospace Recommended Practice (ARP) provides guidelines for abuse load testing of a deployable Individual Video System (IVS). The abuse load testing defined in this ARP is intended to only address the evaluation of the deployable IVS regarding stowage of the system and injurious projections/protrusions as a result of passenger interaction with the video system. Other aspects of the video system design or qualification may require additional testing or analysis and are outside the scope of this ARP. This ARP is not intended to address customer satisfaction or reliability aspects of individual designs.

This SAE Aerospace Recommended Practice (ARP) defines a means of assessing the credibility of computer models of aircraft seating systems used to simulate dynamic impact conditions set forth in Title 14, Code of Federal Regulations (14 CFR) Parts 23.562, 25.562, 27.562, and 29.562. The ARP is applicable to lumped mass and detailed finite element seat models. This includes specifications and performance criteria for aviation specific virtual anthropomorphic test devices (v-ATDs). This document provides a recommended methodology to evaluate the degree of correlation between a seat model and dynamic impact tests. This ARP also provides best practices for testing and modeling designed to support the implementation of analytical models of aircraft seat systems.

A methodology to evaluate the degree of correlation between a seat model and dynamic impact tests is recommended. This ARP also provides testing and modeling best practices specific to support the implementation of analytical models of aircraft seat systems. Supporting information within this document includes procedures for the quantitative comparison of test and simulation results, as well as test reports for data generated to support the development of v-ATDs and a sample v-ATD calibration report.

Part I of this document relates to the restraint systems for the flight deck crew. Part II considers restraint systems for other crew members, including cabin attendants. The recommendations herein include coverage of such items as harness reels, shoulder harnesses, and safety belts. However, the intention is not to limit the design of restraint devices to these particular system components only. These recommendations apply primarily to forward-facing seats. However, the design must take into account the fact that loads may be applied from any direction and be of a magnitude at least as great as those specified in current FAR's.

Part I of this document relates to the restraint systems for the flight deck crew. Part II considers restraint systems for flight attendants and other crew members. As applicable, the same criteria should be incorporated in both Part I and Part II installations. The recommendations herein include coverage of such items as harness reels, shoulder harnesses, and safety belts. However, the intention is not to limit the design of restraint devices to these particular system components only. These recommendations apply primarily to forward-facing and aft-facing seats. However, the design should take into account the fact that loads may be applied from any direction and be of a magnitude at least as great as those specified in current FAR's.

This ARP is intended to make recommendations for flight crew and cabin attendant restraint systems in aircraft. A properly designed crew restraint system will avoid injury or debilitation during a survivable crash and enable post crash assistance to occupants and escape from the aircraft. Consideration is given to existing requirements of the FAA and to the recommendations of aircraft operators and those involved in the manufacture or use of restraining devices. Crew member safety is the primary objective, with appropriate provisions for crew comfort taken into consideration. The criteria established herein are designed to standardize restraining systems without hindering the development of new, improved systems.

This SAE Aerospace Recommended Practice (ARP) defines the documentation, environmental considerations, test and evaluation criteria necessary to support certification of additive manufactured parts used on aircraft seats and associated furnishings. This document is to be used in conjunction with the existing applicable regulatory documents and requirements for parts which are used in low-criticality and non-critical applications.

This SAE Aerospace Recommended Practice (ARP) defines additional documentation, environmental considerations, in-service damage limits, test and evaluation criteria necessary to support certification of aircraft seats manufactured using composite materials, in addition to requirements in AS8049 and ARP5526. This document is limited to aircraft seat composite parts in the seat primary load path from the occupant to the attachments of the seat to the aircraft. The term “composite” is inclusive of any fiber-reinforced polymer matrix materials such as carbon fiber-reinforced plastics, sandwich panels and bonded structure.

This document provides guidance to promote dimensional compatibility between forward facing passenger seat systems in civil transport airplanes and child restraint systems developed primarily for use in automobiles.
