This document could for example contain specific justification and/or agreed deviations from a guideline for certification. Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) stands that EASA/JAA use CRIs for the same reason FAA use issue papers. They document a certification or validation subject that requires an interpretation to be clarified, or that ...
The Aviation Safety Reporting System, or ASRS, is the US Federal Aviation Administration's (FAA) voluntary confidential reporting system that allows pilots, air traffic controllers, cabin crew, dispatchers, maintenance technicians, ground operations, and UAS operators and drone flyers to confidentially report near misses or close call events in the interest of improving aviation safety.
TALPA assessment generates a Runway Condition Code (RWYCC) ranging from 6 to 0, where 6 indicates a dry runway and 0 signifies nil conditions, meaning braking action is minimal to non-existent. Separate runway condition codes are published for each third of a runway, and pilots use a Runway Condition Assessment Matrix (RCAM) to calculate their ...
Processes are intended to support the objectives, according to the software level (A through D—Level E was outside the purview of DO-178B). Processes are described as abstract areas of work in DO-178B, and it is up to the planners of a real project to define and document the specifics of how a process will be carried out.
The parameter data item file must be verified together with the executable object code, or else it must be tested for all possible ranges of the parameter data items. DO-330 "Software Tool Qualification Considerations", a new "domain independent, external document", was developed to provide guidance for an acceptable tool qualification process.
A pilot report or PIREP is a report of actual flight or ground conditions encountered by an aircraft. Reports commonly include information about atmospheric conditions (like temperature , icing , turbulence ) or airport conditions (like runway condition codes or ground equipment failures).
DAFIF diagram of Ottawa International Airport. The Digital Aeronautical Flight Information File or DAFIF (/ ˈ d eɪ f ɪ f /) is a comprehensive database of up-to-date aeronautical data, including information on airports, airways, airspaces, navigation data, and other facts relevant to flying in the entire world, managed by the National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency (NGA) of the United States.
AIXM 5.0 aligned the format with current ISO standards for geospatial information, including GML, allowed for modular development and future extension and was also the first version to enable digital NOTAM. This version is still in use by some “early adopters” including the FAA.
