Title: Flight Simulation Training Device Qualification Standards for Extended Envelope and Adverse Weather Event Training 
Abstract: This rulemaking would improve evaluation qualifications for simulators to allow for training on the following tasks: (1) full/aerodynamic stall, and (2) upset recognition and recovery, as identified in the Airline Safety and Federal Aviation Administration Extension Act of 2010 (PL 111-216). Furthermore, this rulemaking would improve the minimum FSTD evaluation requirements for gusting crosswinds (takeoff/landing), engine and airframe icing, and bounced landing recovery methods in response to NTSB and Aviation Rulemaking Committee (ARC) recommendations. This action is necessary to fully implement some of the training requirements of PL 111-216. The intended effect is to ensure an adequate level of simulator fidelity.
