Title: Flight Simulation Training Device (FSTD) Qualification Standards for Extended Envelope and Adverse Weather Event Training
Abstract: This rulemaking would amend evaluation qualifications for simulators to ensure the simulators are technically capable of performing new flight training tasks as identified in the Airline Safety and Federal Aviation Administration Extension Act of 2010 (PL 111-216) and that are included in a separate rulemaking (2120-AJ00). By ensuring the simulators provide an accurate and realistic simulation, this rulemaking would allow for training on the following tasks: (1) full/aerodynamic stall, and (2) upset recognition and recovery, as identified in 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 recommendations. The intended effect is to ensure an adequate level of simulator fidelity.
