or instrument response. It is the overall time
delay incurred from signal input to output
response. It does not include the characteristic delay of the airplane simulated.
Update - an improvement to or modernization of the quality or the accuracy of the
FSTD without affecting the qualification
level of the FSTD.
Upgrade - the improvement or enhancement of an FSTD for the purpose of achieving a higher qualification level.
Validation Data - objective data used to determine if the FSTD performance is within
the tolerances prescribed in the QPS.
Validation Test - an objective test where
FSTD parameters are compared to the relevant validation data to ensure that the
FSTD performance is within the tolerances
prescribed in the QPS.
Visual Data Base - a display that may include one or more airport models.
Visual System Response Time - the interval
from a control input to the completion of the
visual display scan of the first video field
containing the resulting different information.
Yaw - the airplane attitude with respect to,
or around, the vertical axis expressed in degrees.
