use NSP accepted flight test data for comparison purposes for those tests.
c. Sponsors using the data from Tables B2B
through B2E must comply with the following:
(1) Submit a complete QTG, including results from all of the objective tests appropriate for the level of qualification sought as
set out in Table B2A. The QTG must highlight those results that demonstrate the performance of the FTD is within the allowable
performance ranges indicated in Tables B2B
through B2E, as appropriate.
(2) The QTG test results must include all
relevant information concerning the conditions under which the test was conducted;
e.g., gross weight, center of gravity, airspeed,
power setting, altitude (climbing, descending, or level), temperature, configuration,
and any other parameter that impacts the
conduct of the test.
(3) The test results become the validation
data against which the initial and all subsequent continuing qualification evaluations
are compared. These subsequent evaluations
will use the tolerances listed in Table B2A.
(4) Subjective testing of the device must be
performed to determine that the device performs and handles like an airplane within
the appropriate set of airplanes.

BEGIN QPS REQUIREMENTS

kpayne on VMOFRWIN702 with $$_JOB

a. This paragraph (including the following
tables) is relevant only to FTD Level 5. It is
provided because this level is required to
simulate the performance and handling characteristics of a set of airplanes with similar
characteristics, such as normal airspeed/altitude operating envelope and the same number and type of propulsion systems (engines).
b. Tables B2B through B2E reflect FTD
performance standards that are acceptable
to the FAA. A sponsor must demonstrate
that a device performs within these parameters, as applicable. If a device does not meet
the established performance parameters for
some or for all of the applicable tests listed
in Tables B2B through B2E, the sponsor may
