DOT/FAA RIN: 2120-AH07 Publication ID: Fall 2005 
Title: Flight Simulation Device Qualification  
Abstract: This rulemaking would amend the regulations to establish a new part about qualification requirements for flight simulation training devices (FSTD). The new part would consolidate and update FSTD requirements that currently exist in different parts of the FAA's regulations and in advisory circulars. In addition, the FAA would require that sponsors of FSTDs have a Quality Management System. The intended effect of the new part is to ensure that users of FSTDs receive training in devices that closely match the performance and handling characteristics of the aircraft being simulated. On August 2, 2005, OMB approved downgrading this rulemaking to non-significant.
