Flight Simulation Training Device Initial and Continuing Qualification and Use (Us Federal Aviation Administration Regulation) (Faa) (2018 Edition) The Law Library

Flight Simulation Training Device Initial and Continuing Qualification and Use (US Federal Aviation Administration Regulation) (FAA) (2018 Edition) The Law Library presents the complete text of the Flight Simulation Training Device Initial and Continuing Qualification and Use (US Federal Aviation Administration Regulation) (FAA) (2018 Edition). Updated as of May 29, 2018 The FAA proposes to amend the Qualification Performance Standards (QPS) for flight simulation training devices (FSTD) and add a new level of simulation for helicopter flight training devices (FTD). The FAA proposes to codify existing practice by requiring all existing FSTD visual scenes that are beyond the number required for qualification to meet specified requirements. The proposal also reorganizes certain sections of the QPS appendices and provides additional information on validation tests, established parameters for tolerances, acceptable data formats, and the use of alternative data sources. The proposed changes would ensure that the training and testing environment is accurate and realistic, would codify existing practice, and would provide greater harmonization with the international standards document for simulation. None of these proposed technical requirements would apply to simulators qualified before May 30, 2008, except for the proposal to codify existing practice regarding certain visual scene requirements. The over-all impact of this proposal would result in minimal to no cost increases for manufacturers and sponsors.
