2. DEFINITIONS
1st Segment - the portion of the takeoff profile from liftoff to gear retraction.
2nd Segment - the portion of the takeoff
profile from after gear retraction to initial
flap/slat retraction.
3rd Segment - the portion of the takeoff profile after flap/slat retraction is complete.
Aircraft Data Package - a combination of
the various types of data used to design, program, manufacture, modify, and test the
FSTD.
Airspeed - calibrated airspeed unless otherwise specified and expressed in terms of nautical miles per hour (knots).
Airport Model - 
Class I. Whether modeling real world or fictional airports (or landing areas for helicopters), these airport models (or landing
areas for helicopters) are those that meet
the requirements of Table A3B or C3B, found
in attachment 2 of Appendix A or C, as appropriate, are evaluated by the NSPM, and
are listed on the SOQ.
Class II. Whether modeling real world or
fictional airports (or landing areas for helicopters), these airport models (or landing
areas for helicopters) are those models that
are in excess of those used for simulator
qualification at a specified level. The FSTD
sponsor is responsible for determining that
these models meet the requirements set out
in Table A3C or C3C, found in attachment 2
of Appendix A or C, as appropriate.
Class III. This is a special class of airport
model (or landing area for helicopters), used
for specific purposes, and includes models
that may be incomplete or inaccurate when
viewed without restriction, but when appropriate limits are applied (e.g.,  - valid for use
only in visibility conditions less than 1-2 statute mile or RVR2400 feet, -   - valid for use
only for approaches to Runway 22L and
22R - ), those features that may be incomplete
or inaccurate may not be able to be recognized as such by the crewmember being
trained, tested, or checked. Class III airport
models used for training, testing, or checking activities under this Chapter requires the
certificate holder to submit to the TPAA an
appropriate analysis of the skills, knowledge, and abilities necessary for competent
performance of the task(s) in which this particular model is to be used, and requires
TPAA acceptance of each Class III model.

Altitude - pressure altitude (meters or feet)
unless specified otherwise.
Angle of Attack - the angle between the airplane longitudinal axis and the relative wind
vector projected onto the airplane plane of
symmetry.
Automatic Testing - FSTD testing where all
stimuli are under computer control.
Bank - the airplane attitude with respect
to or around the longitudinal axis, or roll
angle (degrees).
Breakout - the force required at the pilot-s
primary controls to achieve initial movement of the control position.
Certificate Holder - a person issued a certificate under parts 119, 141, or 142 of this chapter or a person holding an approved course of
training for flight engineers in accordance
with part 63 of this chapter.
Closed Loop Testing - a test method where
the input stimuli are generated by controllers that drive the FSTD to follow a pre-defined target response.
Computer Controlled Aircraft - an aircraft
where all pilot inputs to the control surfaces
are transferred and augmented by computers.
Confined Area (helicopter operations) - an
area where the flight of the helicopter is limited in some direction by terrain or the presence of natural or man-made obstructions
(e.g., a clearing in the woods, a city street,
or a road bordered by trees or power lines are
regarded as confined areas).
Control Sweep - movement of the appropriate pilot controller from neutral to an extreme limit in one direction (Forward, Aft,
Right, or Left), a continuous movement back
through neutral to the opposite extreme position, and then a return to the neutral position.
Convertible FSTD - an FSTD in which hardware and software can be changed so that the
FSTD becomes a replica of a different model,
usually of the same type aircraft. The same
FSTD platform, flight deck shell, motion
system, visual system, computers, and peripheral equipment can be used in more than
one simulation.
Critical Engine Parameter - the parameter
that is the most accurate measure of propulsive force.
Deadband - the amount of movement of the
input for a system for which there is no reaction in the output or state of the system observed.
Distance - the length of space between two
points, expressed in terms of nautical miles
unless otherwise specified.
Discrepancy - as used in this part, an aspect
of the FSTD that is not correct with respect
to the aircraft being simulated. This includes missing, malfunctioning, or inoperative components that are required to be
present and operate correctly for training,
evaluation, and experience functions to be
