Ac 25.1329-1C 0 U.S. Department Advisory of Transportation Federal Aviation Circular Administration Subject: Approval of Flight Guidance Systems Date: 10/27/14 AC No: 25 .1329-1C Initiated By: ANM-11 0 This advisory circular (AC) describes an acceptable means for showing compliance with certain requirements of Title 14, Code of Federal Regulations (CFR) 25.1329, Flight guidance systems. While part 25 contains the airworthiness standards applicable to transport category airplanes, the guidance in this AC pertains to the functions of autopilots, flight directors, and automatic thrust control as well as any interactions with stability augmentation and trim functions. This revision incorporates minor changes associated with issuance of the final rule for Airplane and Engine Certification Requirements in Supercooled Large Drop, Mixed Phase, and Ice Crystal Icing Conditions. If you have suggestions for improving this AC, you may use the feedback form at the end ofthis AC.

  • How Doc Draper Became the Father of Inertial Guidance
    (Preprint) AAS 18-121 HOW DOC DRAPER BECAME THE FATHER OF INERTIAL GUIDANCE Philip D. Hattis* With Missouri roots, a Stanford Psychology degree, and a variety of MIT de- grees, Charles Stark “Doc” Draper formulated the basis for reliable and accurate gyro-based sensing technology that enabled the first and many subsequent iner- tial navigation systems. Working with colleagues and students, he created an Instrumentation Laboratory that developed bombsights that changed the balance of World War II in the Pacific. His engineering teams then went on to develop ever smaller and more accurate inertial navigation for aircraft, submarines, stra- tegic missiles, and spaceflight. The resulting inertial navigation systems enable national security, took humans to the Moon, and continue to find new applica- tions. This paper discusses the history of Draper’s path to becoming known as the “Father of Inertial Guidance.” FROM DRAPER’S MISSOURI ROOTS TO MIT ENGINEERING Charles Stark Draper was born in 1901 in Windsor Missouri. His father was a dentist and his mother (nee Stark) was a school teacher. The Stark family developed the Stark apple that was popular in the Midwest and raised the family to prominence1 including a cousin, Lloyd Stark, who became governor of Missouri in 1937. Draper was known to his family and friends as Stark (Figure 1), and later in life was known by colleagues as Doc. During his teenage years, Draper enjoyed tinkering with automobiles. He also worked as an electric linesman (Figure 2), and at age 15 began a liberal arts education at the University of Mis- souri in Rolla.

  • PROPULSION SYSTEM/FLIGHT CONTROL INTEGRATION for SUPERSONIC AIRCRAFT Paul J
    PROPULSION SYSTEM/FLIGHT CONTROL INTEGRATION FOR SUPERSONIC AIRCRAFT Paul J. Reukauf and Frank W. Burcham , Jr. NASA Dryden Flight Research Center SUMMARY The NASA Dryden Flight Research Center is engaged in several programs to study digital integrated control systems. Such systems allow minimization of undesirable interactions while maximizing performance at all flight conditions. One such program is the YF-12 cooperative control program. In this program, the existing analog air-data computer, autothrottle, autopilot, and inlet control systems are to be converted to digital systems by using a general purpose airborne computer and interface unit. First, the existing control laws are to be programed and tested in flight. Then, integrated control laws, derived using accurate mathematical models of the airplane and propulsion system in conjunction with modern control techniques, are to be tested in flight. Analysis indicates that an integrated autothrottle-autopilot gives good flight path control and that observers can be used to replace failed sensors. INTRODUCTION Supersonic airplanes, such as the XB-70, YF-12, F-111, and F-15 airplanes, exhibit strong interactions between the engine and the inlet or between the propul- sion system and the airframe (refs. 1 and 2) . Taking advantage of possible favor- able interactions and eliminating or minimizing unfavorable interactions is a chal- lenging control problem with the potential for significant improvements in fuel consumption, range, and performance. In the past, engine, inlet, and flight control systems were usually developed separately, with a minimum of integration. It has often been possible to optimize the controls for a single design point, but off-design control performance usually suffered.

  • A “Short Course” on Ice and the TBM
    A “Short Course” on Ice and the TBM. Icing is topical at the present time as a result of a recent accident in a TBM. I have had a number of conversations with pilots who I would consider knowledgeable and it is apparent that there is a lot of confusion surrounding this subject. Also noting on line posts this confusion is not limited to owner pilots. I have had occasion to be a victim of my own stupidity in a serious icing condition years ago and I can vouch that icing is a deadly serious situation in more ways than one. Before going on with the subject we want to stipulate that the data we are about to provide is a summary of information that is to be found on line, along with narrative and data provided from knowledgeable instructors, if any of the data provided conflicts with anything you have been taught we urge you to satisfy yourself as to which data is correct. TBM operators fly in the same airspace where we find Part 25 aircraft (Commercial Category) aircraft. There is a big difference in how these two categories of aircraft are affected by icing conditions. A 767 will often be climbing at over 300 kts and 4000+ ft/min at typical icing altitudes. This creates two very distinct advantages for the 767: first, their icing exposure time may be less than 1/3 of ours. Second, icing conditions are a function of TAT (Total Air Temperature), not SAT (static air temp). TAT is warmer than SAT because of the effects of compressibility as the airplane operates at faster and faster speeds.
