Notes
2.d.3. ................................................
Handling qualities.
Lateral directional tests.
(a) Roll overshoot.
OR
(b) Roll response to flight deck roll
controller step input.
Data may be acquired by using an inertial measurement system and a
synchronized video of the calibrated airplane instruments and the
force/position measurements of flight deck lateral controls.
2.d.4. ................................................
Handling qualities.
Lateral directional tests.
Spiral stability.
Data may be acquired by using an inertial measurement system and a
synchronized video of the calibrated airplane instruments; the force/
position measurements of flight deck controls; and a stop watch.
2.d.6.a. .............................................
Handling qualities.
Lateral directional tests.
Rudder response.
Data may be acquired by using an inertial measurement system and a
synchronized video of the calibrated airplane instruments; the force/
position measurements of rudder pedals.
2.d.7. ................................................
Handling qualities.
Lateral directional tests.
Dutch roll, (yaw damper OFF).
Data may be acquired by using an inertial measurement system and a
synchronized video of the calibrated airplane instruments and the
force/position measurements of flight deck controls.
2.d.8. ................................................
Handling qualities.
Lateral directional tests.
Steady state sideslip.
Data may be acquired by using an inertial measurement system and a
synchronized video of the calibrated airplane instruments and the
force/position measurements of flight deck controls.

ISCUSSION
a. The subjective tests provide a basis for
evaluating the capability of the FTD to per-
form over a typical utilization period. The
items listed in the Table of Functions and
Subjective Tests are used to determine
whether the FTD competently simulates
each required maneuver, procedure, or task;
and verifying correct operation of the FTD
controls, instruments, and systems. The
tasks do not limit or exceed the authoriza-
tions for use of a given level of FTD as de-
scribed on the SOQ or as approved by the
TPAA. All items in the following paragraphs
are subject to examination.
b. All simulated airplane systems func-
tions will be assessed for normal and, where
appropriate, alternate operations. Simulated
airplane systems are listed separately under
‘‘Any Flight Phase’’ to ensure appropriate
attention to systems checks. Operational
navigation systems (including inertial navi-
gation systems, global positioning systems,
or other long-range systems) and the associ-
ated electronic display systems will be eval-
uated if installed. The NSP pilot will include
in his report to the TPAA, the effect of the
system operation and any system limitation.
c. At the request of the TPAA, the NSP
Pilot may assess the FTD for a special as-
pect of a sponsor’s training program during
the functions and subjective portion of an
evaluation. Such an assessment may include
a portion of a specific operation (e.g., a Line
Oriented Flight Training (LOFT) scenario)
or special emphasis items in the sponsor’s
training program. Unless directly related to
a requirement for the qualification level, the
results of such an evaluation would not af-
fect the qualification of the FTD.
