14 CFR Ch. I (1-1-19 Edition)

later than 5 business days prior to the scheduled evaluation and may be forwarded to the
NSPM via traditional or electronic means.
(3) A QTG, acceptable to the NSPM, that
includes all of the following:
(a) Objective data obtained from traditional aircraft testing or another approved
source.
(b) Correlating objective test results obtained from the performance of the FFS as
prescribed in the appropriate QPS.
(c) The result of FFS subjective tests prescribed in the appropriate QPS.
(d) A description of the equipment necessary to perform the evaluation for initial
qualification and the continuing qualification evaluations.
c. The QTG described in paragraph (a)(3) of
this section, must provide the documented
proof of compliance with the simulator objective tests in Attachment 2, Table A2A of
this appendix.
d. The QTG is prepared and submitted by
the sponsor, or the sponsor-s agent on behalf
of the sponsor, to the NSPM for review and
approval, and must include, for each objective test:
(1) Parameters, tolerances, and flight conditions;
(2) Pertinent and complete instructions for
the conduct of automatic and manual tests;
(3) A means of comparing the FFS test results to the objective data;
(4) Any other information as necessary, to
assist in the evaluation of the test results;
(5) Other information appropriate to the
qualification level of the FFS.
e. The QTG described in paragraphs (a)(3)
and (b) of this section, must include the following:
(1) A QTG cover page with sponsor and
FAA approval signature blocks (see Attachment 4, Figure A4C, of this appendix for a
sample QTG cover page).
(2) [Reserved]
(3) An FFS information page that provides
the information listed in this paragraph (see
Attachment 4, Figure A4B, of this appendix
for a sample FFS information page). For
convertible FFSs, the sponsor must submit a
separate page for each configuration of the
FFS.
(a) The sponsor-s FFS identification number or code.
(b) The airplane model and series being
simulated.
(c) The aerodynamic data revision number
or reference.
(d) The source of the basic aerodynamic
model and the aerodynamic coefficient data
used to modify the basic model.
(e) The engine model(s) and its data revision number or reference.
(f) The flight control data revision number
or reference.
(g) The flight management system identification and revision level.

(h) The FFS model and manufacturer.
(i) The date of FFS manufacture.
(j) The FFS computer identification.
(k) The visual system model and manufacturer, including display type.
(l) The motion system type and manufacturer, including degrees of freedom.
(4) A Table of Contents.
(5) A log of revisions and a list of effective
pages.
(6) A list of all relevant data references.
(7) A glossary of terms and symbols used
(including sign conventions and units).
(8) Statements of Compliance and Capability (SOCs) with certain requirements.
(9) Recording procedures or equipment required to accomplish the objective tests.
(10) The following information for each objective test designated in Attachment 2,
Table A2A, of this appendix as applicable to
the qualification level sought:
(a) Name of the test.
(b) Objective of the test.
(c) Initial conditions.
(d) Manual test procedures.
(e) Automatic test procedures (if applicable).
(f) Method for evaluating FFS objective
test results.
(g) List of all relevant parameters driven
or constrained during the automatically conducted test(s).
(h) List of all relevant parameters driven
or constrained during the manually conducted test(s).
(i) Tolerances for relevant parameters.
(j) Source of Validation Data (document
and page number).
(k) Copy of the Validation Data (if located
in a separate binder, a cross reference for the
identification and page number for pertinent
data location must be provided).
(l) Simulator Objective Test Results as obtained by the sponsor. Each test result must
reflect the date completed and must be
clearly labeled as a product of the device
being tested.
f. A convertible FFS is addressed as a separate FFS for each model and series airplane
to which it will be converted and for the
FAA qualification level sought. If a sponsor
seeks qualification for two or more models of
an airplane type using a convertible FFS,
the sponsor must submit a QTG for each airplane model, or a QTG for the first airplane
model and a supplement to that QTG for
each additional airplane model. The NSPM
will conduct evaluations for each airplane
model.
g. Form and manner of presentation of objective test results in the QTG:
(1) The sponsor-s FFS test results must be
recorded in a manner acceptable to the
NSPM, that allows easy comparison of the
FFS test results to the validation data (e.g.,
use of a multi-channel recorder, line printer,
cross plotting, overlays, transparencies).
