Pt. 60, App. A 14 CFR Ch. I (1-1-19 Edition) ATTACHMENT 5 TO APPENDIX A TO PART 60 - SIMULATOR QUALIFICATION REQUIREMENTS FOR WINDSHEAR TRAINING PROGRAM USE lllllllllllllllllllllll BEGIN QPS REQUIREMENTS 1. APPLICABILITY This attachment applies to all simulators, regardless of qualification level, that are used to satisfy the training requirements of an FAA-approved low-altitude windshear flight training program, or any FAA-approved training program that addresses windshear encounters. a. The sponsor must submit an SOC confirming that the aerodynamic model is based on flight test data supplied by the airplane manufacturer or other approved data provider. The SOC must also confirm that any change to environmental wind parameters, including variances in those parameters for windshear conditions, once inserted for computation, result in the correct simulated performance. This statement must also include examples of environmental wind parameters currently evaluated in the simulator (such as crosswind takeoffs, crosswind approaches, and crosswind landings). 3. MODELS The windshear models installed in the simulator software used for the qualification evaluation must do the following: a. Provide cues necessary for recognizing windshear onset and potential performance degradation requiring a pilot to initiate recovery procedures. The cues must include all of the following, as appropriate for the portion of the flight envelope: (1) Rapid airspeed change of at least Section15 knots (kts). (2) Stagnation of airspeed during the takeoff roll. (3) Rapid vertical speed change of at least Section500 feet per minute (fpm). (4) Rapid pitch change of at least Section5Section. b. Be adjustable in intensity (or other parameter to achieve an intensity effect) to at 174 VerDate Sep<11>2014 16:30 Jun 25, 2019 Jkt 247047 PO 00000 Frm 00184 Fmt 8010 Sfmt 8002 Q:\14\14V2.TXT PC31 ER09MY08.019 kpayne on VMOFRWIN702 with $$_JOB 2. STATEMENT OF COMPLIANCE AND CAPABILITY (SOC) b. For simulators without windshear warning, caution, or guidance hardware in the original equipment, the SOC must also state that the simulation of the added hardware and/or software, including associated flight deck displays and annunciations, replicates the system(s) installed in the airplane. The statement must be accompanied by a block diagram depicting the input and output signal flow, and comparing the signal flow to the equipment installed in the airplane.
