Notes 

2.f. ............

The simulator must provide for manual 

and automatic testing of simulator 
hardware and software programming 
to determine compliance with simu-
lator objective tests as prescribed in 
Attachment 2 of this appendix.

An SOC is required. 

X  Automatic ‘‘flagging’’ of out-of-tolerance situations is 

encouraged. 

2.g. ...........

Relative responses of the motion sys-

tem, visual system, and flight deck 
instruments, measured by latency 
tests or transport delay tests. Motion 
onset should occur before the start of 
the visual scene change (the start of 
the scan of the first video field con-
taining different information) but must 
occur before the end of the scan of 
that video field. Instrument response 
may not occur prior to motion onset. 
Test results must be within the fol-
lowing limits: 

The intent is to verify that the simulator provides in-

strument, motion, and visual cues that are, within 
the stated time delays, like the airplane re-
sponses. For airplane response, acceleration in 
the appropriate, corresponding rotational axis is 
preferred. 

2.g.1. ........

300 milliseconds of the airplane re-

sponse.

X X 

2.g.2. ........

150 milliseconds of the airplane re-

sponse.

X X 

2.h. ...........

The simulator must accurately repro-

duce the following runway conditions: 

X X 

(1) Dry.
(2) Wet.
(3) Icy.
(4) Patchy Wet.
(5) Patchy Icy.
(6) Wet on Rubber Residue in Touch-

down Zone.

An SOC is required. 

2.i. .............

The simulator must simulate: 
(1) brake and tire failure dynamics, in-

cluding antiskid failure.

(2) decreased brake efficiency due to 

high brake temperatures, if applica-
ble.

An SOC is required. 

X  Simulator pitch, side loading, and directional control 

characteristics should be representative of the air-
plane. 

2.j. .............

The simulator must replicate the effects 

of airframe and engine icing.

X X 

2.k. ............

The aerodynamic modeling in the simu-

lator must include: 

(1) Low-altitude level-flight ground ef-

fect; 

(2) Mach effect at high altitude; ............
(3) Normal and reverse dynamic thrust 

effect on control surfaces; 

See Attachment 2 of this appendix, paragraph 5, for 

further information on ground effect. 

(4) Aeroelastic representations; and 
(5) Nonlinearities due to sideslip. 
An SOC is required and must include 

references to computations of 
aeroelastic representations and of 
nonlinearities due to sideslip. 

2.l. .............

The simulator must have aerodynamic 

and ground reaction modeling for the 
effects of reverse thrust on direc-
tional control, if applicable.

An SOC is required.
