(d) 

Large flocking bird. An engine test 

will be performed as follows: 

(1) Large flocking bird engine tests 

will be performed using the bird mass 
and weights in Table 4, and ingested at 
a bird speed of 200 knots. 

(2) Prior to the ingestion, the engine 

must be stabilized at no less than the 
mechanical rotor speed of the first ex-
posed stage or stages that, on a stand-
ard day, would produce 90 percent of 
the sea level static maximum rated 
takeoff power or thrust. 

(3) The bird must be targeted on the 

first exposed rotating stage or stages 
at a blade airfoil height of not less 
than 50 percent measured at the lead-
ing edge. 

(4) Ingestion of a large flocking bird 

under the conditions prescribed in this 
paragraph must not cause any of the 
following: 

(i) A sustained reduction of power or 

thrust to less than 50 percent of max-
imum rated takeoff power or thrust 
during the run-on segment specified 
under paragraph (d)(5)(i) of this sec-
tion. 

(ii) Engine shutdown during the re-

quired run-on demonstration specified 
in paragraph (d)(5) of this section. 

(iii) The conditions specified in para-

graph (b)(3) of this section. 

(5) The following test schedule must 

be used: 

(i) Ingestion followed by 1 minute 

without power lever movement. 

(ii) Followed by 13 minutes at not 

less than 50 percent of maximum rated 
takeoff power or thrust. 

(iii) Followed by 2 minutes between 

30 and 35 percent of maximum rated 
takeoff power or thrust. 

(iv) Followed by 1 minute with power 

or thrust increased from that set in 
paragraph (d)(5)(iii) of this section, by 
between 5 and 10 percent of maximum 
rated takeoff power or thrust. 

(v) Followed by 2 minutes with power 

or thrust reduced from that set in 

paragraph (d)(5)(iv) of this section, by 
between 5 and 10 percent of maximum 
rated takeoff power or thrust. 

(vi) Followed by a minimum of 1 

minute at ground idle then engine 
shutdown. The durations specified are 
times at the defined conditions. Power 
lever movement between each condi-
tion will be 10 seconds or less, except 
that power lever movements allowed 
within paragraph (d)(5)(ii) of this sec-
tion are not limited, and for setting 
power under paragraph (d)(5)(iii) of this 
section will be 30 seconds or less. 

(6) Compliance with the large flock-

ing bird ingestion requirements of this 
paragraph (d) may also be dem-
onstrated by: 

(i) Incorporating the requirements of 

paragraph (d)(4) and (d)(5) of this sec-
tion, into the large single bird test 
demonstration specified in paragraph 
(b)(1) of this section; or 

(ii) Use of an engine subassembly test 

at the ingestion conditions specified in 
paragraph (b)(1) of this section if: 

(A) All components critical to com-

plying with the requirements of para-
graph (d) of this section are included in 
the subassembly test; 

(B) The components of paragraph 

(d)(6)(ii)(A) of this section are installed 
in a representative engine for a run-on 
demonstration in accordance with 
paragraphs (d)(4) and (d)(5) of this sec-
tion; except that section (d)(5)(i) is de-
leted and section (d)(5)(ii) must be 14 
minutes in duration after the engine is 
started and stabilized; and 

(C) The dynamic effects that would 

have been experienced during a full en-
gine ingestion test can be shown to be 
negligible with respect to meeting the 
requirements of paragraphs (d)(4) and 
(d)(5) of this section. 

(7) Applicants must show that an un-

safe condition will not result if any en-
gine operating limit is exceeded during 
the run-on period.
