ASTM F3232/F3232M-26

Anotácia textu normy ASTM F3232/F3232M-26 :

This specification applies to the flight control aspects of airworthiness and design for "small" aircraft. It establishes the Aircraft Type Code (ATC) compliance matrix based on airworthiness level, number of engines, type of engine(s), stall speed, cruise speed, meteorological conditions, altitude, and maneuvers. An ATC is defined by taking into account both the technical considerations regarding the design of the aircraft and the airworthiness level established based upon risk-based criteria. The requirements established by this specification for manual flight control cover control surface installation, operation and arrangement, control system stops, trim systems, control system locks, limit load static tests, operation tests, control system details, spring devices, cable systems, wing flap controls, wing flap position, and flap interconnection. Requirements for automatic flight control cover automatic pilot systems, stability augmentation, and artificial stall barrier system.
