SECTION II - EVALUATION REQUIREMENTS FOR
UPSET PREVENTION AND RECOVERY TRAINING TASKS
1. This section applies to previously qualified FSTDs being used to obtain training,
testing, or checking credits for upset prevention and recovery training tasks (UPRT) as
defined in Appendix A, Table A1A, Section
2.n. of this part. Additionally, FSTDs being
used for unusual attitude training maneuvers that are intended to exceed the parameters of an aircraft upset must also be evaluated and qualified for UPRT under this section. These parameters include pitch attitudes greater than 25 degrees nose up; pitch
attitudes greater than 10 degrees nose down,
and bank angles greater than 45 degrees.
2. The requirements contained in this section are intended to define minimum standards for evaluating an FSTD for use in upset
prevention and recovery training maneuvers
that may exceed an aircraft-s normal flight
envelope. These standards include the evaluation of qualified training maneuvers
against the FSTD-s validation envelope and
providing the instructor with minimum feedback tools for the purpose of determining if
a training maneuver is conducted within
FSTD validation limits and the aircraft-s operating limits.
3. This Directive contains additional subjective testing that exceeds the evaluation
requirements of previously qualified FSTDs.
Where aerodynamic modeling data or validation data is not available or insufficient to
meet the requirements of this Directive, the
NSPM may limit additional qualification to
certain upset prevention and recovery maneuvers where adequate data exists.
4. After March 12, 2019, any FSTD being
used to obtain training, testing, or checking
credit for upset prevention and recovery
training tasks in an FAA approved flight
training program must be evaluated and
issued additional qualification in accordance
with this Directive and the following sections of Appendix A of this part:
a. Table A1A, General Requirements, Section
2.n. (Upset Prevention and Recovery)
b. Table A3A, Functions and Subjective Testing, Test 5.b.3. (Upset Prevention and Recovery Maneuvers)
c. Attachment 7, Additional Simulator Qualification Requirements for Stall, Upset
Prevention and Recovery, and Engine and
Airframe Icing Training Tasks (Upset Prevention and Recovery Training Maneuver
Evaluation)
5. Where qualification is being sought to
conduct upset prevention and recovery training tasks in accordance with this Directive,
the FSTD Sponsor must conduct the required evaluations and modifications as prescribed in this Directive and report compliance to the NSPM in accordance with Section 60.23
using the NSP-s standardized FSTD Sponsor

Notification Form. At a minimum, this form
must be accompanied with the following information:
a. A description of any modifications to the
FSTD (in accordance with Section 60.23) necessary
to meet the requirements of this Directive.
b. Statement of Compliance (FSTD Validation Envelope) - See Table A1A, Section
2.n. and Attachment 7
c. A confirmation statement that the modified FSTD has been subjectively evaluated
by a qualified pilot as described in
Section 60.16(a)(1)(iii).
6. The NSPM will review each submission
to determine if the requirements of this Directive have been met and respond to the
FSTD Sponsor as described in Section 60.23(c). Additional NSPM conducted FSTD evaluations
may be required before the modified FSTD is
placed into service. This response, along
with any noted restrictions, will serve as an
interim qualification for upset prevention
and recovery training tasks until such time
that a permanent change is made to the
Statement of Qualification (SOQ) at the
FSTD-s next scheduled evaluation.
SECTION III - EVALUATION REQUIREMENTS FOR
ENGINE AND AIRFRAME ICING TRAINING TASKS
1. This section applies to previously qualified Level C and Level D FSTDs being used
to obtain training, testing, or checking credits in maneuvers that demonstrate the effects of engine and airframe ice accretion.
2. The requirements in this section are intended to supersede and improve upon existing Level C and Level D FSTD evaluation requirements on the effects of engine and airframe icing. The requirements define a minimum level of fidelity required to adequately
simulate the aircraft specific aerodynamic
characteristics of an in-flight encounter with
engine and airframe ice accretion as necessary to accomplish training objectives.
3. This Directive contains additional subjective testing that exceeds the evaluation
requirements of previously qualified FSTDs.
Where aerodynamic modeling data is not
available or insufficient to meet the requirements of this Directive, the NSPM may limit
qualified engine and airframe icing maneuvers where sufficient aerodynamic modeling
data exists.
4. After March 12, 2019, any FSTD being
used to conduct training tasks that demonstrate the effects of engine and airframe
icing must be evaluated and issued additional qualification in accordance with this
Directive and the following sections of Appendix A of this part:
a. Table A1A, General Requirements, Section
2.j. (Engine and Airframe Icing)
b. Attachment 7, Additional Simulator Qualification Requirements for Stall, Upset
Prevention and Recovery, and Engine and
Airframe Icing Training Tasks (Engine and
