21. RECORDKEEPING AND REPORTING (Section 60.31)
lllllllllllllllllllllll
BEGIN QPS REQUIREMENTS
a. FTD modifications can include hardware
or software changes. For FTD modifications
involving software programming changes,
the record required by Section 60.31(a)(2) must consist of the name of the aircraft system software, aerodynamic model, or engine model
change, the date of the change, a summary
of the change, and the reason for the change.
b. If a coded form for record keeping is
used, it must provide for the preservation
and retrieval of information with appropriate security or controls to prevent the inappropriate alteration of such records after
the fact.

BEGIN INFORMATION
a. The following is a general description of
each level of FTD. Detailed standards and
tests for the various levels of FTDs are fully
defined in Attachments 1 through 3 of this
appendix.
(1) Level 4. A device that may have an open
airplane-specific flight deck area, or an enclosed airplane-specific flight deck and at
least one operating system. Air/ground logic
is required (no aerodynamic programming
required). All displays may be flat/LCD panel
representations or actual representations of
displays in the aircraft. All controls, switches, and knobs may be touch sensitive activation (not capable of manual manipulation of

the flight controls) or may physically replicate the aircraft in control operation.
(2) Level 5. A device that may have an open
airplane-specific flight deck area, or an enclosed airplane-specific flight deck; generic
aerodynamic programming; at least one operating system; and control loading that is
representative of the simulated airplane
only at an approach speed and configuration.
All displays may be flat/LCD panel representations or actual representations of displays
in the aircraft. Primary and secondary flight
controls (e.g., rudder, aileron, elevator, flaps,
spoilers/speed brakes, engine controls, landing gear, nosewheel steering, trim, brakes)
must be physical controls. All other controls, switches, and knobs may be touch sensitive activation.
(3) Level 6. A device that has an enclosed
airplane-specific flight deck; airplane-specific aerodynamic programming; all applicable airplane systems operating; control loading that is representative of the simulated
airplane throughout its ground and flight envelope; and significant sound representation.
All displays may be flat/LCD panel representations or actual representations of displays
in the aircraft, but all controls, switches,
and knobs must physically replicate the aircraft in control operation.

(4) Level 7. A Level 7 device is one that has
an enclosed airplane-specific flight deck and
aerodynamic program with all applicable
airplane systems operating and control loading that is representative of the simulated
airplane throughout its ground and flight envelope and significant sound representation.
All displays may be flat/LCD panel representations or actual representations of displays
in the aircraft, but all controls, switches,
and knobs must physically replicate the aircraft in control operation. It also has a visual system that provides an out-of-the-flight
deck view, providing cross-flight deck viewing (for both pilots simultaneously) of a
field-of-view of at least 180Section horizontally and
40Section vertically.
25. FTD QUALIFICATION ON THE BASIS OF A BILATERAL AVIATION SAFETY AGREEMENT
(BASA) (Section 60.37)
lllllllllllllllllllllll
BEGIN INFORMATION
No additional regulatory or informational
material applies to Section 60.37, FTD Qualification
on the Basis of a Bilateral Aviation Safety
Agreement (BASA).
