The same year it was founded, Standard Aircraft became a very early supplier of aircraft to the U.S. Army Signal Corps (perhaps fifth or sixth ever). [1] The corporation supplied the Sloane H as the Standard H-2 and H-3 to the Army, and the float-equipped H-4H to the Navy, after the Sloane company was reorganised as the Standard Aircraft Co.
Standard J-1 providing joyrides. Although produced in large numbers, its four-cylinder Hall-Scott A-7a engine was unreliable and vibrated badly. While JN-4 production outnumbered J-1s by about two to one in June 1918, fatalities in JN-4s versus J-1s numbered about seven to one due to the limited use of the J-1s.
This includes the human-machine interface. The way in which particular vehicle factors affect flying qualities has been studied in aircraft for decades, [3] and reference standards for the flying qualities of both fixed-wing aircraft [4] and rotary-wing aircraft [5] have been developed and are now in common use. These standards define a subset ...
MIL-STD-704 Aircraft Electrical Power Characteristics is a United States Military Standard that defines a standardized power interface between a military aircraft and its equipment and carriage stores, covering such topics as voltage, frequency, phase, power factor, ripple, maximum current, electrical noise and abnormal conditions (overvoltage and undervoltage), for both AC and DC systems.

The Standard E-1 was an early American Army fighter aircraft, tested in 1917. [1] It was the only pursuit aircraft manufactured by the United States during World War I . [ 2 ] It arrived late in World War I, and as a result saw more use in the months following the Armistice than those preceding it.
MIL-STD-1553 was first published as a U.S. Air Force standard in 1973, and first was used on the F-16 Falcon fighter aircraft. Other aircraft designs quickly followed, including the F/A-18 Hornet, AH-64 Apache, P-3C Orion, F-15 Eagle and F-20 Tigershark. It is widely used by all branches of the U.S. military and by NASA. [1]
A Standard is defined by ICAO as "any specification for physical characteristics, configuration, material, performance, personnel or procedure, the uniform application of which is recognized as necessary for the safety or regularity of international air navigation and to which Contracting States will conform in accordance with the Convention".
